Buying A Bass Guitar - Parts Of A Bass Guitar You Should Know About
Buying a Bass Guitar - Parts of a Bass Guitar You Should Know About
So you feel that you are ready for buying a bass guitar, but your not quite sure where to start? Well before you just walk into a guitar store and buy the first bass guitar they give you, it would be wise to gather up a little knowledge about the different variations you will likely encounter.
Here are some important terms and features that would be a good idea to get familiar with before you choose your first bass.
Scale Length
The scale length is measured in inches and refers to to vibrating length of the bass strings. The longer the neck is on the bass will mean that the scale length will be longer. A bassist with small hands will want to look for a smaller scale, because large scale bass guitars have more distance between each fret, and this will make it difficult for them to stretch their fret hand far enough.
Most Common Scale Lengths For Electric Bass
Xtra Long: 35+ in.
Long (Standard): 34 in.
Medium: 32 in.
Short: 30 in.
Check The Nut Width
The nut is usually a whit colored plastic component with grooves that guide the strings to the tunning pegs. The nut width is simply the width of the neck at the nut. Again, a wider nut will only give the small hand people a disadvantage.
Four String, Five String...?
The very first bass was a four string bass and for many decades, it stayed that way. Today, a bass guitar is available in 4, 5, 6, all the way to 12 string. The four and five string bass are the two most common configurations, but it will depend on what style of music you play. The difference between the four and five string bass is that the five string adds a lower string. Here are the tuning for each:
Four String Tuning:
E(top)-A-D-G(bottom)
Five String Tuning:
B(top)-E-A-D-G(bottom)

Can you string a bass that has a low b string with a high c instead?
like, if you have a 5 string bass that has BEADG, can you take those strings off, chuck'em, and put on new strings that are EADGC? or is that impossible and i would have to find a bass that is made especially for EADGC tuning?
YES !
that is exactly how I set up one of my 5 strings, and I prefer it that way !
The simplest way, is to find a dealer that carries a 6 string set, and buy that,
(hopefully, they will knock off a couple bucks, and keep the low "B"?)
The neck will need a simple adjustment, because the "tension" is less, but yes, it will work.
