Hello, I'm a total newbie to bass guitar. I have a guitar effects
processor - Zoom GFX-3. Please could someone tell me whether I can safely
play a bass guitar directly through this, or would I need to connect the
line-level output from my bass amp into the GFX? I don't really understand
the difference in signal between lead and bass guitars.
The reason I want to do this is mainly because I want to get a sound like
that on the Twin Peaks theme music. I stumbled upon a patch on the device
that sounds like it, while playing around (with a lead guitar), and would
like to try it with a bass.
Thanks for helping out a newb!
Bob
