Is it true that bass gitarre is the easiest instrument to play?

Okay so I play bass and people at school are giving me a hard time about it because they think that "bassists are not really musicians because bass is the easiest instrument to play". So is it true that it is the easiest to play?

It's probably not. I play bass too! It kinda depends on the song really...but I think it's not that easy. People say it's easy because they haven't played it before :P

I think it depends, I probably couldn't (I'm a woodwind-er) personally I think the kazoo is probably easier, I heard some flautists who wanted to get into a jazz band picked up the saxaphone and the week after they were accepted (the fingering's the same for sax as it is for flute. But still)

I started on flute, then changed to oboe, which is a better career choice (lots of people play the flute, not very many play the oboe, less competition)

Don't listen to the naysayers. I wouldn't consider bass to be that simple. Sure, there are simple songs to play, but it can get complicated too. So many songs are built on the bass line and it's really Mehr about how Du play it and how much passion Du put into it. Bassists are very often under-appreciated. I guess it's just something you'll have to brush off. Just do your thing and rock that bass.

Weiter time someone makes a comment, just tell them "Yeah, I was considering the cow glocke oder the triangle, but I thought the bass would be much simpler." Sarcasm...ain't it a bitch?

i play the bass, it's easy if Du know how to play it, but if you're teaching yourself and don't have the slightest clue... good luck. no, honestly piano, viola, gitarre and klarinette are easier for me. gitarre was easy to learn, and Piano Du just gotta get the hang of it.

Playing anything is hard, ask a real band person oder a friend that plays something and they sagte it's not that easy. My friend, Abi-Fox, plays the vilion and has been playing for 6 years, and shes ONLY upto playing half a song, so its not that easy, whatever Du play, its gonna take a while

This might be bit late. A bassist is a musician, that's a silly thing to say. It is the easiest to play I think. Well, out of drums, piano, gitarre and bass (what I play) I found that as soon as I picked up the bass I could play it. I played the gitarre for many years before this though. As for timing, it's critical for every instrument all the same. Timing is crucial.
