N. 1) A person who plays the bass guitar or the stand up bass (aka. double bass, contra bass, bass violin).
2) A person who used to play the guitar and decides that playing the bass is essentially the same as playing guitar. Many times these are simply 'bass players' and not bassist's. Not to say that crossing over is wrong or that all who do predominantly suck, but that one must BE a bassist not just play the bass.
3) One who studies the art of music utalizing the bass as a medium. One who learns music on bass/f clef first.
4) Bassist's are quiet, laid back, and quirky in nature. Many times the bassist is the most humble guy/chick in a band due to the role of the instrument. Bass is the anchor of music along with drums, although bass is often audibly more subliminal.

Get the bassist mug.The bassoon is by far the best instrument ever, making the other sections bow down to them. If you fail to play it right though, it will sound like a duck that is dying.
And although it is the best, the other sections must confuse the bassoon with the oboe every other time they say the name, because they do not know any better.
Commonly referred to as the "farting bedpost", and also the target of many jokes (most of which involve the bassoon again being compared with the inferior oboe, having it being burned longer.) the bassoonists must be very patient.
