bass guitar 

a guitar with four strings that is easier to play than a regular guitar and makes a low, muffled sound. Great sound and the strings are harder to play due to their size, but due to most bands use of only 1 string at a time, the bass is both overlooked and superbly easy to play.
The bass guitar is cool, but the electric takes more skill to master.

bass guitar 

A 4-stringed bass guitar is easier to learn than the standard six-string electrc guitar.

A Bass guitar tends to be funky and more rythmical than the electric.
Bass guitarists tend to be dull dull dull dull people. No offence but it is true.

Electric Guitarists tend to be wilder, and generally better looking people (I play guitar and look like a monkey's uncle -.- but who cares).

Drummers tend to be the wildest and least seen!

Singers tend to be able to sing (most of the time) and are the best looking.

In order the groupie listing is as follows.

Singer/lead guitarist- Best groupies, first choice.
Drummer/rhythm guitarist- Good groupies, second choice.
Bass guitarist-Pick of the litter.

Flying Bass Guitar 

Aircraft such as the Antonov AN-12, AN-22, AN-26, and the Tupolev TU-95 that have a very low frequency prop sound when flying at high altitudes and even have the tendency to vibrate things on the ground.
I was watching Young and the Restless on tv and everything started to vibrate. The first thing I did was check FlightRadar24 and there was an Antonov AN-22 flying directly overhead. Those things have the tendency to vibrate everything even on the ground and I call it a flying bass guitar.

Bass Guitarist 

1) The often overlooked person in the band, even though they provide melodic stability. He/She may play via plucking, picking, slapping, tapping, or any variation thereof. The bassist may play on a bass guitar with strings numbering from four to twelve (eight, ten, and twelve are harmonics similar to a twelve stringed guitar.) and in tunings ranging from low A to E. The male of this species usually has a larger stature than the rest of the band.

2) The person seen carrying the overly intoxicated guitarist onto the tour bus.

3) The bane of the sound technician.

4) The person that usually stands stage right, not bouncing like an imbecile.
