Bassist Syndrome

1. When your picking/strumming arm gets noticeably larger from playing bass, or you get cuts/blisters/dimples on your hands from playing.

2. When one feels ignored, or as if they don't get enough credit, as bassists are often overlooked despite being a huge part in a bands sound, just like a guitarist/drummer/keyboardist/vocalist/etc.
I got a bad case of bassist syndrome.... hug me?

the very heart and soul of any band
without him/her any rock band is no more
then a boy band with Marshall half stacks
they usually use a combonation of finger
picking,slapping/popping,and picking to get their orgasmic sound that makes the crowd jump,along with the drummer the bassist is the sexiest member of the group and thereby usually ends up with the most groupies...or a hot girlfriend.Oh, and a quick side note;recent archeological digs have proven that not only did jesus and budah play bass,so did Zeus.

(adj) Fortified with 100% Recommended Daily Allowance of badass.

This is like your orange juice with the vitamin C, only it's with the essence of badass instead. So if your plus vitamin C orange juice were plus badass instead, you could call it badassified.

A musically inclined person who, instead of being a showman (like most guitarists, but not all) is more the pure musician along with the drummer, the pianist, and the mandolin player, the "musician in the group.

But the main job (this, coming from a bass player) is to translate the languages between the guitarist and the drummer, for they speak two totally different languages.

And popular to popular opinion, the bass player does not usually create the rhythm or even state it for the guitarist to play along with, it is the drummer that does that in most circumstances. The bass player in most occasions adds to that rhythm and makes it more complex, or creates a bas(s)is for drum solos.
Guitarist: Dude! I am the leader of this band.
Drummer: *obscure mumbling*
Guitarist: What'd he say?
Bassist: He said you're a douche, dude.
