I Have No Ideas for a Title!

I think I'll learn how to play the bass.

I have a pretty good idea already and I've played around with it before but I want to learn a song that can be recognized.

After two hours my fingers are really sore.  It's like playing the guitar for the first time all over again because the strings on a bass are so much thicker than any electric guitar that I play usually.  That's pretty normal.  It's not just a bass, though.  It's an acoustic bass!  So it's really hard to press the strings down.  Maybe I'll get gnarly calluses like when I was playing strictly acoustic...

I kind of hope not but I really want to be able to play my bass without wimping out.
