The bass guitar (also called electric bass, or simply bass; /ˈbeɪs/) is a stringed instrument played primarily with the fingers or thumb, by plucking, slapping, popping, strumming, tapping, thumping, or picking with a plectrum, often known as a 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 is plugged into an amplifier and speaker for live performances.
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 bass lines vary widely from one style of music to another, the bassist usually fulfills a similar role: anchoring the harmonic framework and establishing the beat. Many styles of music utilise the bass guitar, including rock, metal, pop, punk rock, country, reggae, gospel, blues, and jazz. It is often a solo instrument in jazz, jazz fusion, Latin, funk, progressive rock and other rock and metal styles.

Bass Guitar
I grew up in the in the days 1990's
People drunk cans and fought for Tony
What were you, what were you coming from?
Walking the shoes just to wear 'em out
Breaking down is what you're feeling
And that's like living: giving way
But no-one really understands their freedom
And no-one understands society
Well I went to buy myself a hand gun
What do you think, man? shoot down everyone
See you back oh running star
But I spent all my money on this crapped out piece of shit called 'the bass guitar'
With an ear wigga, with a break down low, with a "ello baby"
We all know what you got to do
Always just comes down to you
We all know what you got to do, man
Always just comes down to yo-ou-ou
He got hit down to the curb
He said "I screamed and I shouted but nobody heard"
He said "I've preached, I've taught and I've learn't"
He said "now, I'm just down from the suburbs"
With an here we go, with a break down low, with a "ello baby"
We all know what you got to do
Always just comes down to you
We all know what you got to do, man
Always just comes down to yo-ou-ou
He got hit down to the curb
He said "I screamed and I shouted but nobody heard"
He said "I've preached, I've taught and now I've learn't"
He said "now, I'm just down from the suburbs"
Well, I-I-I-I I went drinkin down at the bar
I went drink driving in your car
See you back now running star
Cos right now I'm not sure if I can drive for shit but fuck it ah-ah-ah
