i’ve been playing …
i’ve been playing bass for at least 8 years and i love it. it is a lot of fun. i get down with all types and styles from marcus miller to les claypool (my fav) to ben kaufmann (of yonder mountain string band which i highly recomment you ALL check out) i have found though that when it comes to just jammin out some songs for your friends as solo act guitar can be more fun. they are so closely related that you might as well learn both.

It depends what …
It depends what kind of style of bass you play. Are you going to say that bassists like Flea or Les Claypool play the least important part of the song?
You can resign yourself to being a root-note playing bassist or you can learn some decent basslines and turn your volume up to a point where people can actually hear you.
You sound to me like the “you have a problem with your bass amp; I can hear it” kind of bassist.. I refuse to be that

Dude, BIG thumbs up …
Dude, BIG thumbs up!!! Most people will just mention Flea but you’ve gone above and beyond and mentioned some of my favorite bassists aswell. Ryan Martinie WAS my favorite bassist… Untill I started checking out Marco Rodi’s clips on youtube.
I agree totally; bass doesnt have to be a basic instrument and doesnt have to be in the background. But most bassists these days just cop-out and conform to that stereotype.. I refuse to though

well if you wanna be that broad about “learning” bass than i know how to play piano guitar drums you name it. you might have the concept down but can you rip it like jaco, miller or wooten and if you can after one hoour of learning well i guess im sol. bottom line: dont hate appreciate you douchebag
February 2nd, 2009 at 3:10 pm
i agree completely …
i agree completely with Moezzila’s comment. Seeing as how I have played piano for 11 years and have played bass for 4. I can personally say that piano is hard until your muscle memory kicks in, as is true with most instruments. So I’m not going to sit here and tell you that bass sucks, because it definitely doesn’t, and I’m not going to say piano is gay because, well, it definitely isn’t it takes skill to play whichever you choose. Bottom line.
Have a great day everbody.

I play both Piano …
I play both Piano and Bass, Piano is 1000 times harder. Dont be a got Pontoz, and actually try to play. I Bet you dont even know how to play an instrument.

Those who say that …
Those who say that bass is just an easy insrument is a stupid, no brainer and classifies the busy freeway as music. Maybe they only hear the piano or guitar parts in a band but it’s the bass that gives life to the music. A band without a bass guitar is just like a pencil without lead, pointless.

Ancient 70’s rock proverb: He who underestimates and degrades the bass has no good tastes in music.

agree, bass is an excellent instrument which is used for way more then just keeping beats, any good bassist or what should be any good guitarist would know this.

I admit as a guy who likes to learn new licks, solos and scales constantly bass usually has easy stuff to learn, but thats not bass fault thats the fault of bands not having bassists do what they should and create artistic music.I myself am a musician and my instrument is bass. If you want to learn how bass is good or just want some good bass tabs listen to Victor Wooten, Cliff Burton, Flea (RHCP), Les Claypool, & my above all fav bassist Ryan Martinie of MuDvAyNe. Trust me, check it.
