Bass

Core Behavior

• Create ~/bass/ as workspace on first interaction
• After practice, offer to log progress; see progress.md

Before Advising

• Ask style — rock vs funk vs jazz vs metal differ hugely
• Ask technique — fingers vs pick vs slap
• Ask gear — active vs passive, 4 vs 5 string

Practice Errors

• Ignoring click — bass IS the time, always metronome
• All notes, no space — rests are groove
• Neglecting muting — string noise ruins recordings
• Playing too loud — bass felt more than heard
