Wes Montgomery/George Benson Guitar VI?

Post by theaks2002 »

Hi List... I wasn't sure where to post this but...
I am looking for a quality George Benson/smooth jazz type octave guitar VI (or patch within one) for a tune I am working on.
Closest I've come is one in Quantum Leap Guitars however it's an older library. I have used it on a demo on my website (Kinder Joe) . I do have RealStrat.. and it's kinda there... but a little twangy.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

it hasn't been released yet but Impact SoundWorks is releasing a library like this in the next month or so, it should be very good.

thanks for your reply kgdrum, do you know if this library will be loop based? I'm not interested in loops but a "playable" guitar.

They haven't posted demos yet but I think it will be totally playable NOT loop based.
There's a thread on KVR about it,here's a link. :-)
