THE original Bass Guitar was developed bu Paul Tutmarc in the 1930s as a replacement for the double bass, but he received little success for the invention. In the 1950's Leo Fender (who, obviously, is the man who strated Fender. Doesn;t have anything to do with it any more but that's another story) took the idea and produced the first mass produced bass guitar on the market; the precision bass. This was hugely popular and since bass Guitars have become the norm in all bands, and variations upon the precision and still made and extremely popular.
It was designed to be another option to the double bass, which was difficult to playand transport, as well as quiet and extremely expensive to produce and buy. The frets also made it simpler and more accurate for people to teach themselves to play.
