Answer 4

I assume you mean construction...

Bass and electric guitars share the following:

1) Electronics that include pickups
2) Body, neck, frets and other structural details (although they are different sizes)
3) Identical method of calculating fret distance (called the 17 Rule)
4) Identical string vibration theories (although bass strings vibrate at a much lower frequency)
5) Both use even tempered tuning and compensated scale lengths

The list continues ad nauseum....
