Four string or five string bass?

Question

hey i need help i'm about to buy my first bass. I've been playing the electric guitar for the past two years and now i'm going to learn the bass. I found a five string that i really like but i don't know if i should go with a four string instead. Because i'm a girl i don't have huge hands so will i still be able to play a five string? Please help!!

Answer 1

I would get the five string.  personally the four string bass makes me feel limited.

Answer 2

definitly 5 more artisit like  adam nitti tap awmazingly on 5 string basses

Answer 3

five strings are way better

I have a 4 string and I wish I could do more on it but it's range isn't big enough

they may be a bit more expensive, but it's worth it
