    I compose music on my guitar since 2014. My guitar work is ok but damn I always have so much fun composing bass parts to my chords.
    Also like another comment said: "As a guitarist I can say I do appreciate a nasty bass tone mixed well in songs and not buried under everything "
    I totally agree! The bass is an awesome instrument and should treated as one and not like only playing roots (even though sometimes a simple bass sounds awesome too).
    What got me really into bass was Queensryche's masterpiece "Operation Mindcrime" and later Trivium's "What the Dead Men say". I could hear the bass pretty well in the mix and what the bassists are playing is just fun to listen to! ^^

    I was and still am for all intents and purposes a bassist. I started out on bass, been playing for like 10 years and then switched to the guitar and been playing it for like 5 years. So in my 15 years of playing instruments I found out two things: Playing bass made me learn guitar faster, and learning guitar made my bass playing better. I see no reason to be exclusive on a single instrument, these two are extentions of each other...

    I'm probably the only guitarist in exitence that innitially wanted to be a bass player. Yes, for real. My small town only had cheap acoustics and Squire strats, and later I just figured it's easier to stick to guitar if I want to join a band sooner rather than learning bass from scratch. So, yeah, bass is amazing, pls more bass content!
