re: Question for the Bass Players

---

If you also play guitar, how similar was it to learning guitar? What were the differences?

From a theory and fretboard standpoint, it's pretty much all the same as guitar (if you're playing on a 4 string bass).

The differences lie mainly in the physical/aural aspects like string switching on thicker strings, a heaver instrument overall, getting the right tone that fits the song/music but doesn't get buried under the mix, etc.

There are tons of resources on YouTube/Instagram/TikTok.

Here's a few I follow:
