I'd like to see a quote from Leo Fender stating the first mass produced electric bass he designed was intended only for fingerpicking players.

PS. Jaco is a pussy.

Haha i disagree, Jaco is awesome, but thats not why im replying.

Leo Fender INVENTED the electric bass so that ELECTIRC GUITARISTS could double on bass as well. The instrument of electric bass was designed with pick players in mind, NOT finger players. Finger playing (much warmer fatter rounder sound) became popular very quickly, but nevertheless the instrument was not (as some people have said) "designed to be played with fingers."

I play with fingers, but just thought id make this known. Elitism sucks.
