J-BASS, P-BASS, SG BASS AND 4003
If you're new to the instrument, these terms may seem a bit confusing, but this is how many refer to the four most iconic bass guitars: the Fender Jazz Bass, Fender Precision Bass, Gibson SG Bass and Rickenbacker 4003.
Out of those, the Precision Bass is the most traditional. In fact, it's the first electric bass guitar ever made! Created by Leo Fender in 1951, the P-Bass was revolutionary, and thanks to its deep, warm tone, it's still very popular today.
Gibson Bass Guitars have narrower necks than Fender-style basses, which some players prefer. The SG and Thunderbird models are particularly popular amongst heavy rock bands, too!
Finally, the Rickenbacker 4003 bass guitars are some of the most expensive and desirable models. Used by legendary bands such as The Beatles, Sex Pistols, The Jam and Motorhead, these bass guitars have very comfortable necks and a great sound!
BEST BASS GUITAR BRANDS
Besides Fender, Gibson and Rickenbacker, other popular brands include Music Man, Squier, Ibanez and Eastcoast. These all make some great, affordable basses perfect for beginners, providing some of the best value-for-money.
