Spy Guitar: The Fender VI Bass Guitar is a classic instrument. Moving beyond the traditional four-string bass layout, it features six strings, for an impressive range. Spy Guitar includes a variety of playing styles, including upstroke and downstroke articulations, plus pizzicato (short notes) and ebow. The instrument also comes with an effects rack featuring classic effects such as reverb, tremolo, and fuzz. This Instrument requires Ableton Live 9 Suite. Download Spy Guitar for Ableton!

Ultravox Bass Guitar: Brian Funk aka AfroDJMac looked back to the bass guitar parts from one of his tracks, “I’d Never Leave You”. Featuring multisamples of an Ultravox electric bass guitar, Brian’s custom Ableton Pack further features multiple strikes of each note. This replicates the way that a plucked string rarely sounds the same twice in a row. Download AfroDJMac’s Univox Bass!
