She comes back and her dad asks her what she learned at her first lesson. "I learned the first five notes on the first string."

Next thursday she leaves for her bass lesson, and upon returning her dad asks her what she learned on her second lesson. "I learned the first five notes on the second string."

The third thursday, however, she leaves for the lesson but doesn't return. Her father worries and waits. She finally comes home at 3am smelling of smoke. Her dad angrily asks her where she's been, "I had my first gig." she replies.

Show off!
Yeah, when I started out it was: one one one one one one one one; one one one one one one one one; etc
and you only needed to know the bottom three open strings to play just about anything. Those frets are just there for show!
