Also, good guitar players who learn to "think in bass" are taking a first step toward being good arrangers. When you're "thinking in bass," you're "thinking in lines," not chords, which will make you a better writer and arranger and make your songs and recordings sound more complete and polished than 99% of what you hear from DIY singer-songwriters.

I’ve started practicing bass regularly and it’s benefit to me has been unbelievable. I am better at all aspects of hearing the music, both with a bass or guitar, than before I started lessons.
