a four stringed instrument created in the 1950's replacing the upright bass or cello. often overlooked as an instrument, the bass guitar does not get much credit unless the bassist shows true talent such as Thomas Commerford from Rage Against the Machine or Johnny Christ from Avenged sevenfold. In analogies,
Bass is the sperm and the Guitar is the penis
Guitar is the hot chick, and the Bass is the sex
Guitar is the cereal, Bass is the Milk
Bass guitar Rockers!
Thomas Commerford from Rage Against the Machine
Johnny Christ from Avenged sevenfold

Also known as the electric bass or just “bass”, the Bass Guitar is a musical instrument invented by Seattle based musician, Paul Tutmarc on 1930, and Leo Fender, who made the first successful Bass Guitar on 1951 with the Fender Precision Bass. The bass guitar was built similarly to a guitar, but made to replace the the Double Bass, or Upright Bass.
The Bass uses pickups, magnets that detects the vibration of bass’s thick string, and transmit them into the Amp to produce deep sound. This is done by plucking the strings with your fingers, or picking them.
The Bass plays an important role in music. Connecting the drums to the treble and providing a rhythmic foundation to the rest of the members.
This and it’s versatility gave birth to many new playing techniques and variations of the bass, many of them caused bassist’s wallets to go dry.
The Bass Guitar cemented itself in western music and, to this day, is important to many genres of music.
Virgin: oh woaaow nice guitar, play wonderwall!
Chad: oh nice bass guitar, can you play Jaco?
A four string guitar tuned EADG. Properly played using one's index and middle finger to "pick"(the thumb can also be used the strum), improperly played by dumbass guitarists who use a pick and think they can play bass.
Other playing types include slapping, in which the bassist hits the string with the side of his thumb, and plucking in which the bassist hooks his or her finger underneath the string an pulls.
I play bass guitar.
Les Claypool of Primus is a great bassist.
Cliff Burton is a good bassist.
Krist Novoselic is a terrible bassist.

2. The Fingers on the right hand of a bass player. Usually the Index and Middle Finger that can move very rapidly. Often used on females.

The best instrument to ever exist. Has 4 strings and is 1 octave lower than a guitar.
I play the bass guitar for the school band.
Aircraft such as the Antonov AN-12, AN-22, AN-26, and the Tupolev TU-95 that have a very low frequency prop sound when flying at high altitudes and even have the tendency to vibrate things on the ground.
I was watching Young and the Restless on tv and everything started to vibrate. The first thing I did was check FlightRadar24 and there was an Antonov AN-22 flying directly overhead. Those things have the tendency to vibrate everything even on the ground and I call it a flying bass guitar.
