Hey i am getting a bass on friday, and as im gonna be new to playing, im going for a cheap £140 one. the one im gonna get is one with 20 frets. ive seen other 'standard' basses which have over 20. Do the amount of frets on the neck actually is much of an impact on playing, or just a difference in the guitar not the music?

not only is it not possible, but it you try and play that thing without a speaker plugged into it you could blow the amp, very very dangerous to play amy valve amp with no speaker plugged in,, beware!!

how much you paying?? if you want a real cheapie starter then go for a fender squier, get a good 2nd hand one for not a lot of cash, sound quite good too.

Almost everybody I know had a Squier Strat as a first guitar, and every single one of them complained about how much it sucked. The strings always went out of tune, the pickups were brittle-sounding and noisy, and the action was horrible. I would suggest going with Epiphone, the entry to mid-level division of Gibson. Their prices range from under $200 to over a $1000, so they're bound to have something to fit your style and budget. I think the les paul special starts around $150 or so. Anyway, look at local and online music stores for guitars and try them out before you consider buying them. What's important is what sounds, feels, and looks good to YOU. You're the one plunking down the cash, after all. Well, that's my recommendation, hope it helps a little. Good luck.
hey ive got an eletric guitar and my low E string bangs against the top fret every time i pluck it. it sounds like crap, does anyone know what i can do to fix it???

You could try increasing the action of your bridge.
Or maybe you need a new plastic string guider thingy (don't know the technical name for it!) that sits just off the fret board near the tuning heads. It could be worn.
Or perhaps you have your guitar tuned too low.!

Re: bass neck length
Short scale bass will have an effect on the tone, not as deep, a lot of women play short scale necks too.

try lighter strings, sounds like the nut though, maybe its cut too low.
