Broaden your horizon.   

Dear guitar players,

Even if you don’t plan on being a real bassist you can get so much out of it!
Here are a list of reasons: 
  1. It is very good at conditioning and stamina. Your guitar will feel like dental floss after some time.
  2. Great for your memory. You can use the bass to root out the chord using one note.  You can play through very difficult songs because you just play the root.
  3. builds your ear. If you sing the melody while playing bass you get a whole different look at the tune.
  4. They are reasonable. You can get a pretty good price. I highly recommend getting a bass amp as well. I have used a guitar amp but when I got a bass amp it was a game changer.
  5. If you feed yourself by playing music. You double your gig ability very quickly. Bass is much less  competition.
  6. You won’t have to hire a bassist when recording.  Check it out!
I would recommend going online to get some basic lines in your bag. Blues is always a good place to start
Remember this instrument has more to do with “feel” than a ton of notes. This will help your overall playing.
Even if you just have a phone to use.  You can record a bass line and play over it.
There are a lot of guitar players. 
You also might get into jamming with some great players that need a bass player.
Getting your foot in the door only offers opportunities!
