Hi, I am hobbyist musician. I play keyboards and I know bit of music theory. I am thinking about playing bass guitar.

My question is do I have to learn to play regular guitar (6 strings) or can I jump straight into the bass guitar (4 strings)

TIA

Can try flat wound strings if bleeding fingers aren't for you as well, they aren't as bright but are so much nicer to play.
