The keys on the right play the higher music, and these are the pitches you would get out of a regular guitar.Also, do you want to play rhythm or lead? With a bass, you can only play rhythm.

Go to a music store, and check out both, then decide.==You can still play bass and it doesn't have to be rhythm.
