	Waxing Philosophic : Lesson by Dan Lasley
		Bass players are often perceived to be less important than the vocalist, drummer, and lead guitarist.
		Many guitarists know all of the chords and forms, but don’t understand the notes and theory that is contained under their fingers.
		Sometimes, the rhythm guitarist is playing counter-beat, and the drummer is counting a straight four, and it comes down to the bass player to set the style.

	Jemsite - Bass Playin' - Not sounding like a guitarist playing a Bass
		I recommend finding a couple bass players who have the style you'd like to have, and really immerse yourself in their work.
		Granted, you can have a pretty drastic effect by altering the rhythm of what you're playing (e.g., playing a driving bass part really pushes the song along vs. playing a really laid back bass part), but you can have a tremendous effect on the overall tonality of the song, too.
		I had a lot of fun playing bass for a while, and I certainly learned a lot and improved my ability to groove.
