bassists are inferior to everybody else in a typical rock band, and that's because everybody else actually brings something to the table. the guitarist might compose the songs, the singer might help tweak the songs and add a vocal melody, and the drummer brings the whole thing together. and what does the bassist do? he just plays what the guitarist wrote, and half the time nobody's going to hear him anyway.

>This is what guitarists think
As I got into music production I became able to understand just how great an instrument a bass is. It's really no wonder it's Squarepusher's instrument of choice, and FlyLo puts Thundercat's contributions to great use. If you only listen to rock like a pleb, then yeah, you won't be able to appreciate bass. But if you open your ears to other genres (especially jazz), you'll actually be able to understand how great the bass actually is.

that makes a good bass player.
if the bass wouldnt be there the entire thing would sound like shit and lack substance.
drummer here. without my >50 bass mate there wouldnt be a point to even try.
lmao @ yr opinions, I play guitar and bass and in almost everything, the bass is the second most important instrument after the drums.
plus it can be way more fun to play
plebs hold this opinion because they use either shitty earbuds with no bass or shitty Beats that turn everything into nigrabass
>>61133319
>what does the bassist do?
Literally everything because the rest of the band are retarded
Even guitar already have bass strings.
Like any of you have a real answer to OP? everybody dont know why the bass is "important".
Nice meme center pic lol
>>61133319
Just try listening to something you like without the bass. The bass adds dimension. Someone's clearly frustrated.
