Bass Technique

[Purplekeys]

Does anyone knows if it makes a difference if you play a bass with the same fingering technique you would an electric? if youre right-handed instead of holding your right hand upward to pluck the notes you just pluck the strings with your hands downward?

im asking is it ok to play the bass the same as you would play the electric guitar, instead of holding your thumb on the high string you just play it the same as you would the electric
