I actually think this will sell well to people who mix the bass as an extension of the guitar, as you can get away with a lot in that style and it's easy to get it tight and even, and no need to buy new strings.
I like the concept but it's one of those things where if you're really familiar with the instrument anyway you're going to prefer a real performance, and programming a real performance will probably take just as long as playing it properly if you're a guitarist who owns a bass. This is coming from my limited experience of programming strings attempting to sound realistic... Lots of articulations and dynamics to consider
Plus learning to play bass is a marketable skill- learning to program this plug-in unlikely to get you any gigs.

Entering the notes isn't the hard part, it's the articulation and dynamics. This usually involves a lot of MIDI control stuff, for example you might automate a value to switch between finger and slap, another for hammer on vs picking the note, another for slide between note vs play each note independently, another for picking position etc etc...

I'll sometimes start with Scarbee Jay Bass while I'm getting ideas together, but replace it with real bass later.
Having said that, I'm tempted to upgrade my old copy of Trilogy bass to Trilium.

It's worth considering as an alternative, provided you've got loads of hard drive space. I moved the 33GB library to another drive to my OS drive.

But the clips of the IK product sound very good and I expect it will have a much lower footprint, as it's based on physical modelling.
