Alias bass_guitar -> guitar

No to either. And dug up my old posts to copypaste this.

Given that:

  • Bass guitars/electric basses aren't a real fork of guitars, rather being created as a shrunken version of the upright/double bass for easier use.
  • Their difference in terms of body, sound (might not matter as much here) and way of playing.
  • How someone would easily differentiate a bass from a guitar (and might not even consider it a guitar).
