What to do when you can not can not decide between bass and an electric guitar?

To start off, whichever is more fun for you. If its not fun, you wont practice, if you dont practice you wont get anywhere. I tried guitar at first and quit shortly after, too much memorization & odd hand contortions involved in those chords. Years later i picked up bass guitar & have had no desire to play six string again. Its also important to consider what your goals are. If you wish to play in a band, it will be much easier to get a gig as a bass player than as a guitar player... Guitar players are a dime a dozen, but a good bassist is hard to come by. However, if you want to be in the spotlight, guitar is the way to go. Sad but true, its the way of the world. The bass player is always the red-headed stepchild of the group. Stamina and endurance are important attributes of a bass player. While the guitarist may throw in a solo here & there, or strum a few rhythm chords, the bass player and drummer have to keep the song moving, and so they seldom get a break. Memory, dexterity and speed are the important attributes of a guitarist. The guitar is responsible for the most memorable hooks in many songs, and can easily make or break a band. Guitar is a very versatile instrument, which is both a good thing and a bad thing, on the good side it give you a lot of creative leeway, on the bad side, it significantly increases the level of crap youll need to learn to be a successful guitarist.

Which is better for a rock band. Electric guitar or bass guitar?

That's kind of backwards. A bass guitar is an electric guitar, but it can also be acoustic. Most bass guitars are electric. They usually have four strings, and are lower in tone than the regular guitar. That's why they are called 'bass' guitars. They follow the chords of a song and bring out the low end of the sound, emphasizing with bass notes. There are five and six string bass guitars as well, but most are four string. Watch for the guy with a four string guitar on stage and you probably are looking at the bass guitarist. Listen for the low single notes being played and you are listening to the bass guitarist.

Can you shred a bass guitar?

It's certainly possible to play pretty fast; things like fingertapping are harder because of the size of the frets and the size of the strings, though, and I can tell you from experience that sweep picking produces a very muddy, bad sound.

How much are good quality basses?

A good quality bass is at minimum 300$, now not to say a bass under that is bad, bass guitars depend on what genre you play. Example, Fender is a good punk rock bass, but I have a classic Fender P-Bass at 210$. it is an amazing punk bass for the price. So I personally wouldn't relate a bass to money and quality, some bass guitars are good for some kinds of music, and some are not. Find out what genre you like, and buy a recommended bass for that genre.
