If you already play electric and acoustic guitar, would you find bass easy to learn?

December 17th, 2011 | Category: Acoustic Bass Guitars

I play electric and acoustic and was just wondering if i’d also be able to handle a bass guitar. I want to join a band and if i can play bass as well as electric I would have more options.
also would a bass guitar plug into the amp I already have for my electric?

    Which guitar? Electric/Acoustic/Bass?

    August 10th, 2011 | Category: Acoustic Bass Guitars

    At the moment I learn the Cello and Double Bass, and teach myself Violin and Piano (I had learnt it for a while but didn’t like the teacher but enjoyed the instrument), so I have a fair understanding of music, and am fairly able to pick up new instruments. I know these instruments won’t help at all in terms of guitar playing but I am wondering which guitar I should start on.
    I know Acoustic is recommended usually for beginners, but that is because it strengthens fingers and w/e else. But I have fairly strong fingers from playing Double Bass and so would that change it? And I also know that the strings are the same on the Double Bass as the Bass Guitar, so would that be better to pick up first?
    I am confused as I like all guitars and the styles played on them.
    I think in the end I would take up all three…but basically…Which would be best to start on? Cos i’m paying for them so I want to make sure I start on the right one.
    Thanks for any answers, sorry for babbling :D
    One more thing ;) haha sorry about this…I really don’t have a clue…
    I was looking at some Electro-Acoustics – how do they sound? Do they switch easily from Acoustic-sounding to Electric-sounding :P
    I quite liked the idea of one because it meant I wouldn’t have to buy each instrument but that is only if they are worthwhile and sound like the original instruments.
    Hard to please :s hehe
    Thankyou…this is really it now :)
    Thanks for your answers, they have been really helpful :)
    So if I got a Acoustic to start off with, shoulg I get normal Acoustic or Electro-Acoustic?

              Acoustic Bass or Acoustic guitar?

              June 03rd, 2011 | Category: Acoustic Bass Guitars

              I want to learn how to play the guitar and i can not decide whether or not i want to play the acoustic bass or Acoustic guitar. I’ve had this interest for a couple of months now and asked questions about playing a bass guitar.My friend says you gotta have kinda large hands to play it and since i’m a girl with small hands , kinda bursted my bubble :/ .I’m not getting the electric version of the guitar yet until i feel that i can upgrade ;) , plus i’m only 14 (15 in July) and saving my allowance to buy the guitar myself.

              What are the positives and negatives about the acoustic bass and acoustic guitar ? what would you suggest would be easier/ better for me to learn and play? What brands produce good guitars?

              Please no silly troll comments

                Acoustic, Bass Guitar??? POLL?

                May 17th, 2011 | Category: Acoustic Bass Guitars

                Which should I learn how to play the acoustic guitar or the bass guitar? Which better and, tell me why? I’ll be starting college in april and, hopefully i will meet some people so, i can start a band. but, right now i’m focus on learning to play on my own.

                Ps: I kind of a judgemental family who, don’t like the kind of music i like(rock, pop, country) plus how i dress(skinny jeans, piercings,vest, glasses, skater shoes) in other words they look at me as dressing white plus i have mostly white friends. anyway, my point is i would like to buy a guitar online would that be a bad idea? (i’m left handed btw) I was thinking about buying a good brand guitar for left handed people so, when i leave for college in a month i can just take it with me.

                  What kind of banjo should I buy?

                  May 14th, 2011 | Category: Resonator Guitars

                  I’m looking to buy my first banjo. I play upright bass, guitar, bass guitar, and ukulele, so I don’t think I need a "beginners banjo". I’m planning on playing more folk than bluegrass. What’s the difference between open back and resonator? My banjo hero is Sufjan Stevens, so it would be great if anyone knows what kind of banjo he has.
