I thought the bass player's role was to teach the guitarist all the musical theory that he/she never bothered to learn.

@Ryanvbon the bass guitar is the rhythmic and harmonic linchpin within the framework of a band. The groove is where it’s at....but that in no way is to suggest that there isn’t the capability for creativity or expression.

@dylankickyoazz nothing wrong with guitar. I happen to play bass, drums and guitar, and by saying guitars r the "wrong instrument" is ignorant on ur part. We guitar players can't hold the band down like u do alone, and I respect that. We need u. But check out Prince. He's a brilliant bass player, and an amazing guitar player. In an R&B, Funk, hip hop, and blues setting, he has to hold himself down, and his guitar playing is like the roof that's like insurance for his grooves. Prince is a legend.
