One you don't turn the volume down on to drown out.

Someone who can be listened to solo. I go into Guitar Center in Flint, Mi.
and never fail to get an audience for my blues, rock and funk playing. It's a guitar, not a set of drums with tone.

Obviously, you are one of the good ones! Play on!

A bassist should be able to hold the floor at all times even with minimal notes if needed, yet still shine when the time comes to do so.

I was always told that the bassist had to be the coolest dude in the band.

That's as good a description as I have ever heard.

A good bass player is someone who listens to and compliments the music and knows where you are going before you go there.
