Hi! Bass: Try hammersound(s).net (I always forget if there's an 's' or not, there is a bass called: natural decaying bass (nd_bass). I believe it was packed in sfark or sfpack, but this can be unpacked under wine or a real windows (if you are unfortunite to have one :-)) There's another big GM-soundfont, which is called fluid revesion 3 (fluidr3), I don't know if this can still be downloaded. For harp, I think there are a few nice soundfonts at hammersound as well. The same goes for acoustic guitar. There's the protrax and the maestro. Those are nice enough. Entering guitar notes. Well take your keyboard or some guitar with MIDI-output, if you can lay your hands on one. Roland made those gr synth. Synthisizers you play via your guitar. But there maybe less expensive and more to the point solutions for that. As to creating a soundfont yourself: There's swami. Swami can create soundfonts and you can test them directly in swami or use fluidsynth for extended testing, what ever suites you. Concerning the real recording aspects of it, well... About this I don't know very much. But best edit your samples beforehand, trim the beginning and ending, probably normalize them... If there are problems about that, you better start a new thread, because this is really a thing in itself... I hope that helps a little.
