ok ok i know its out of subject since this is a guitar forum, but i wanna give some tips to a bass player who doesnt have much experience. not that i know anything about bass but i can try to help.

so is anyone here a bass player as well or knows some beginner tips like when playing with ur fingers do u use a similar pattern to finger picking on guitar ie pima.

and if power chords have the same structure.. i assume the notes are like g,g#,a, a# etc.. like on guitar frets.

and what string gauge are basses usually

greatly appreaciated if anyone can help or even point me to a good site like this one :)
