Bass Guitar

The bass guitar is a low-pitched electric or acoustic guitar used to connect rhythm and harmony. It usually outlines the bass line, supports the drums, and gives shape to chord movement. The instrument became central to jazz, rock, funk, soul, and popular music after the 1950s, where its tone could be both supportive and strongly melodic.
