You will also need 2 guitar cables, 1 to connect the out to the amp (I use a short one), one to connect the guitar to the in (I use a long one).
Rocksmith cable goes in the bypass.
It works really well, is cheap, and you have a tuner for if you want to play straight through the amp without RS. JUst an ideal solution for me.
If you are a gear snob or plan to become a professional or whatever you can get a more expensive Korg tuner if you like, but this setup is perfect for me.
You do lose the effects the game puts in, but I haven't found a song yet that I prefer the RS amp/effects modelling on to just the clean sound through the amp.
Others will probably chime in with ideas about fixing your intonation which is probably (partially) your problem but what helped me was changing out the factory strings and putting on a decent set of new ones.
Also; don't trust the in-game tuner; it's far too generous and forgiving even though the game itself isn't. Either get a headstock tuner (any of them, even the super-cheap ones seem to work better than the in-game one); or an in-line tuner.
