The Guitar

I have a question about sheet music and bass guitar. Can you answer?

Im getting a bass guitar in a few days for my b-day and ive been waiting a year! Well I just had a question about sheet music, its been awhile since ive been in music class but I remember the basics of reading music. To me its easier to play instruments using notes, then tabs i find tabs difficult. So if you buy a guitar song book does it have the bass notes in it too? Id assume it’d be by the bass clef lol. So if a song book doesnt have bass clef it isnt for bass guitar? Do you have to buy altogether seperate song books just for bass then regular guitar? My dad plays guitar and he has several song books i wanna learn from but most dont have a bass clef. How can you be sure when buying a book online, that it has bass notes in it?

usually when you buy a guitar or bass song book it will have the tablature and the chords but it will also have the sheet music. although when learning bass i find it easier to use tabs, once you got the hang of them they make your life a lot easier when it comes to learning new songs x
