Best 5 Bass Guitars For 2019 by Navas96: 12:40pm On Oct 30, 2019
Many people believe that the bass guitar is the easiest rock ‘n’ roll instrument to learn. And in one way, they are correct; it is far easier to get a simple groove out of a bass than it is to play some chords on a guitar or a beat on a drum kit.
But, to play a bass well, takes as much dedication and skill, as needed to play either the guitar or drums.
Most average guitarists can ‘play’ bass, but very few of them can do it well. Good bass guitarists are not failed guitarists who couldn’t manage to play a guitar that has six strings; they are a different breed; they love the groove and low end.
Bassists are never happier, than when they are locked in with a good drummer, and creating a foundation for guitarists and singers to rise out of. Good bass players are simply invaluable, and anyone should be proud to play such a wonderful and important instrument.

1. FENDER MUSTANG BASS
Short-scale basses have gone through something of a renaissance recently, bringing more female players into the world of bass, as well as offering plummy old-school tones that are very much in fashion right now.
With both split and single-coil pickups on offer, a selection of tones are available, but be aware that the shorter scale length reduces the speaking length of each string so the tone is markedly softer than you may be accustomed to with a long-scale bass.
Playability is impressive while the choice of pau ferro as a fingerboard timber gives the bass more bounce and a harder attack. Effective for all playing styles, pick and fingerstyle players will especially love it.
Made In: Mexico | Colour: Sonic Blue Gloss | Body: Alder | Neck: Maple | Scale: 30-inch | Neck Joint: Bolt-on, four-bolt attachment | Nut Width: 38mm | Fingerboard: Pau ferro | Frets: 19 | Pickups: Passive split and single-coil | Electronics: Passive | Controls: Volume, tone, pickup selector switch | Hardware: Chrome hardware, open elephant-ear machine heads, standard bridge | Weight: 3.4kg | Case/gig bag included: No | Left-hand option: No

2. YAMAHA TRBX305
Yamaha consistently produce high-quality basses at every price point and even at the cheaper end of the scale, their instruments are some of the best bass guitars around.
This budget five-string bass guitar competes well with basses costing twice the price, incorporating an impressive pickup and circuit combination, solidly effective hardware and an overall setup that makes you want to play it.
If this guitar incorporated a mid-EQ control as well, it would likely trounce many instruments priced well above it; but even so, the bass projects very well with authority and clarity. Available in assorted colours, touches like the sculpted pickup casings and the comfortable neck profile make this bass a real winner.
Made In: Indonesia | Colour: Mist Green Gloss | Body: Mahogany | Neck: Maple and mahogany | Scale: 34-inch | Neck Joint: Bolt-on, four-bolt attachment | Nut Width: 43mm | Fingerboard: Rosewood | Frets: 24 | Pickups: M3 humbuckers | Electronics: Active two-band EQ | Controls: Volume, pickup pan, bass, treble, five-position performance EQ switch | Hardware: Black nickel hardware, Yamaha die-cast machine heads, top-loading bridge | Weight: 4.1kg | Case/gig bag included: No | Left-hand option: No
