Me too. :lol:

Probably because I'm more of a guitarist than anything, but I like bass. It's very fun -- very loose, easy going.

I'm also a self-taught bassist so maybe that's why I suck -_- :lol:

I'm a bassist too. Mainly rythm guitarist, but I like bass too.

And I was originally the bassist for my band, and then the guitar player and now I'm not in the band anymore. But anywayz :P

I pick up my bass now and then. And at school I'm one of the few bassist in music class so they'll ask me more often if I want to play bass 'cause there's loads of guitarists.

I've had some bass guitar lessons as well, but I can't read notes. I quit my lessons 'cause I didn't like the teacher and I didn't have the time anymore. Also, I remember he figured out some bass parts on a song, but I was like "Dude, you forgot the bass part here!" which was the most awesome part of the song. And he said: "Oh, I'll listen and I'll have it next week" and I went: "Nevermind, got it."
So I wasn't really having fun, I didn't have the time anymore, and there was no 'challenge', if you know what I mean.

Yeah. I also prefer guitar, but I love playing bass. Really. It ain't boring AT ALL. When I pick up my bass, you won't hear me talk for hours :lol:

Guitar and bass are equally fun.

I think people don't usually choose to play bass because you generally hear guitar in songs more than bass.

But I really like both

well that's true, plus the guitarist usually gets more attention and you can make really easy guitar parts sound really cool to people who have no idea about playing. but i hate when people say you don't hear the bass anyway, who the hell needs bass :rolleyes:

Yeah, you can't shred on a bass.

But bass is still fun, and I never consider a band "complete" without a bassist, so.... :rolleyes:

A band isn't complete without a bassist. The drummer and the bassist form the base of it all.

And I think a bassist should try to do his/her best to show other people what fun it is to play bass.

I play a little bass, self-thaught and all so I don't get much farther then the really easy stuff.. I can do most of Seek and Destroy, though, which makes me uncommonly proud :lol:

My main instrument is guitar, but only because my mom had an old guitar in the living room and I started playing it when I was 11, and by now I've got 2 newer ones and.. yeah. If I had to make the choice again though, I'd choose bass. I love the fat, relaxed sound you can get, but also the funky things :biggrin
