His crotch or your crotch? One's a crime. Hell, in some states, both of them are.

I put down Slash as one of my five in my last post, totally forgetting about Vaughn and Vaughn is easily one of my favorites. I don't know how I could've forgotten about him.

Depends if its a big Upright bass or not.
Those big old things seen in old jazz videos aren't.

The smaller ones worn over the shoulder with a strap that have guitar shaped bodies are.

no...it's a bass

it's like saying name your favourite piano player and naming an organist ...just cause they look similar doesn't mean they're the same.

Jaden, Bass Guitar is the electric bass everybody employs in rock pop etc. (Examples: The Fender precision, the Fender jazz and Flea's Ernie ball, you name) it if its worn on the player by usage of a strap and has the small solid body and pickups, and it aint one of those big old upright double basses, its a bass guitar.

Aint nothing wrong with just calling it 'bass' anyhow, but just for accuracy...

No, a bass is considered in the guitar family.

My top bassist is Gene Simmons

Hahahahaha, Gene Simmons and Angus Young.

Well, to each their own.

Angus Young on bass...?

That'd make a cool change... but how would he get round that neck with such small hands...?

He'd probably have to use a short scale Tanglewood or something lest the bass be bigger than he is.lolz

Well since Gene Simmons is one of the only bassist's I actually think is good, and remember I said if someone is better than Angus, it's Jimi Hendrix, and he probably is the best guitarist of all time.

Skill wise?

There are people sitting in their bedrooms better than Angus Young. He isn't very skilled.
