I don't know... I'm writing a bass-riff for a song and there is no way in heaven or earth that I can play it at the right tempo with my fingers (And get the sound I need it to have, at least). Keep in mind I don't play bass but for the occasional bass-line for writing music (And that happens once a month at the most frequent)
