Bass and bass are two words that are spelled identically but are pronounced differently and have different meanings, which makes them heteronyms. We will examine the definitions of the words bass and bass, where these words came from, and a few examples of their use in sentences.

A bass (bass) is a type of fish that belongs to the perch family. There are many different species of bass, both freshwater and marine species. Bass are game fish and are eaten. The word bass to mean a fish is derived from the Old English word bærs, which means perch or bass fish. The preferred plural form of bass is bass, though basses is seen occasionally.

Bass (base) is used as a noun or an adjective and means the lowest in pitch, deepest sound-producing voice or instrument. Examples of such instruments are the bass guitar, a bass drum, and a bass horn. The word bass is also used to mean the portion of a musical composition that is played at the lowest pitch or it may mean a man who sings the lowest part of a musical composition. The word bass is derived from the Latin word bassus, which means low. The plural form of bass is basses
 
***New Guitar***

So my son has been getting good on the guitar and we promised him a new one subject to some conditions that he met.

However the wife insisted we go and try a load of guitars instead of getting carried away on the Internet and buying something sight unseen.

So we've been round various guitar shops and bought a new electric guitar at the weekend. Having tried loads I was blown away by the sounds of this one. Classic simple design. 2 pickups. Any guesses.

Correct. Tried loads, some feel nice, some sound nice. The Tele (a mexican player version) just sounds so good. I always assumed there would be little difference between a mid range squire and a cheaper fender. Build wise there is nothing in it and for that the credit goes to squire. They feel the same, it has the 'modern c' neck shape which plays very well, the squire he had was the same. But plugged in its night and day.

Not cheap at over £650 but they are about to go up by £100.

Also shout out to vinnys guitar shop in heaton Moor. Spent a good hour + in there chatting wile jnr played practically everything in the shop.

It's addictive mate.
Now I just have my Gibbo Les Paul & Ovation acoustic.
I've had dozens of guitars over the years and I've come to the conclusion that these are best for me. I love their tones and feel.
And .....they increase in value.

Have 3 Bass guitars as well.
 
I watched a recent interview with Snowy White.
He acquired his Les Paul Gold top second hand when he was 18 and it's the only guitar he's ever played on stage, even all the years touring with Pink Floyd and Roger Waters. I really like that, 1 guitar.
He said he took it everywhere, it was even under his chair in posh restaurants which Roger insisted on going too.
Hotel rooms it was under his bed.
He just auctioned it as he's given up playing due to an injury to his arm

Brilliant guitarist is Snowy. A good mate of Peter Greens back in the day.
