Bass face 

1) The facial expression made by a bassist while playing a complex, tight groove. Caused by the brain's processing power being diverted to the hands, leaving the facial nerves uncontrolled and free to create various drunken, blank, derpy expressions. The bassist may be unaware he is doing it. Some physicians have speculated that bassists' brains may not be capable of controlling more than one region of the body at a time. This explains why they sleep with the ugly groupies.

2) A facial expression that only looks cute on Tal Wilkenfeld.
Guitarist: "Your bass face looks like you just saw your mother banging the family dog."
