(also called electric bass)
(or simply bass)
.
-the bass guitar is a ‘stringed instrument’ played primarily with the ‘fingers’ or ‘thumb’, by [plucking / slapping / popping / strumming / tapping / thumping / ‘picking’ with a ‘plectrum’ (aka) ‘pick’]-
.
(the bass guitar is similar in appearance and construction to an electric guitar, but with a longer neck and scale length, and four to six strings or ‘courses’)
(the four-string bass, by far the most common, is usually tuned the same as the double bass, which corresponds to pitches one octave lower than the four lowest pitched strings of a guitar (E, A, D, and G))
(the bass guitar is a transposing instrument, as it is notated in bass clef an octave higher than it sounds (as is the double bass) to avoid excessive ledger lines)
(like the electric guitar, the bass guitar has pickups and needs to be connected to an amplifier and speaker, which makes a sound loud enough to hear0
(since the 1960s, the bass guitar has largely replaced the double bass in popular music as the bass instrument in the rhythm section)
(while types of basslines vary widely from one style of music to another, the bassist usually plays a similar role: anchoring the harmonic framework and establishing the beat)
(many styles of music include the bass guitar, including rock, heavy metal, pop, punk rock, country, reggae, gospel, blues, symphonic rock, and jazz)
(it is often a solo instrument in jazz, jazz fusion, Latin, funk, progressive rock, and other ‘rock’ + ‘metal’ styles)
