:One of two alternative playstyles in GuitarFreaks, allowing the player to play the bass guitar portions of the song. Most songs in classic GuitarFreaks have only BASIC and ADVANCED charts for Bass, with several having an additional chart on EXTREME. Since [[AC GFDM XG|GuitarFreaksXG & DrumManiaXG]], all songs are given three Bass charts, with a handful having MASTER Bass charts. This was changed as of [[AC GD Tri-Boost|GITADORA Tri-Boost]], where almost all new songs have MASTER Bass charts.
