    I'm a regular 6-string guitar player and always took bass for granted until I started adding my own bass parts into home recording mix tracks. I quickly learned that the bass has the ability to change the feel and mood of any rhythm and melody part simply by alternating the bass lines and notes that are being ridden on underneath the rest of the tracks. It's changed my outlook of the instrument and I'm begrudgingly starting to admit that it's the most important part in any mix, which is quite humbling being a dedicated 6-string player.

    I’m a drummer of 10 years and I really tried to get into guitar back in the lockdown but it just never stuck. I think the bass is more appealing to me bc bass and drums for the most part are so heavily rooted together within a songs structure. Also if I ever come up w a melody in my head, it always sounds more like a bass line rather than a guitar part.

    You see that crowd dancing? They're not moving to the drums or lead guitar, they're dancing to the groovy bass!

    I watched this video a few years ago, and I had never listened to Tool (except for those songs on guitar hero 4). Now it's one of my favorite bands, and this was the video that made me want to listen to the band. Thank you for that!

    When people ask what a bassline is I always tell them the example of Under pressure by the Queen and David Bowie. Then they understand immediately. It is so distinguishable that even beginners can hear that. Even Vanilla Ice could.

    Your definition of “amazing” is questionable.

      I learned the chain in less than a day 2 days after I bought a bass. I do have prior guitar experience but it is not very hard
