How many strings should a bass guitar have? Some people think that the fewer strings, the easier it is to play. On the one hand, yes, when it comes to muting, things are not so simple with a six-string bass. On the other hand, with a five- and six-string bass guitar, it is much more convenient to transpose and play in an alternative tuning. The positions on the fretboard are more familiar, the hand position is simpler, and the sound is fatter. Not to mention what a gorgeous chord sound you can get on a six-string bass!
