The bass guitar
1.
2. The Bass guitar is a similar but
different thing from a regular guitar.
3. Less strings
A bass guitar has less strings than your average guitar. They
usually have 4 strings, which are the most common. Some have
5, some have 6, but most bass guitars have 4.
4. Sound?
The bass guitar produces a much deeper sound also.
The Bass makes a bum, while a regular guitar makes a Bing. (If that makes any
sense).
5. Different Amps..?
A guitar amp and a bass amp are 2 different things. It’s pretty
much common sense, but while asking around, I found out
that a lot of people didn’t know.
6. Recommended Sizes
For personal use, I would suggest using a 10 to 30 watt amp.
(its all you really need for self use)
For gigs, I would say go bigger; 75 watts or bigger.
7. How to play?
The bass guitar can be played in pretty much 3 different
ways…
Picking
Finger Strumming
And Slapping
8. Finger Strumming
Finger strumming is just how it sounds. You pull
up on the strings, as simple as that. It’s more of a
bluesy way to play. Finger strummers are usually
into funk or blues.
9. Picking
Picking is another way of playing, which is common for most
rock or punk bands.
Its pretty much just using a pick to strum the strings.
(I use a pick, I
find it easier.
Plus… Its just
my style.)
10. Slap Bass!
The third way is Slap Bass, which is amazing! Slap bass is
pretty much thumping the strings with your thumb while
popping the strings with your other fingers. It’s a pretty
awesome way to play!
