Fundamentslly, I agree with @neepheid, however I will add some context. I have played 5 string bass and lined the ability to go low onto the N string, rarely if ever venturing below the D on the 3rd fret. However I am happier on a 4.
I once watched a YouTube video on the art of Rhythm Guitar. It was, as usual, 20 minutes to explain a simple idea but the gist of the matter is that Rhythm Guitarist should avoid the E and even A strings (assuming standard EADGBE tuning) when playing chords, so as to leave that sonic area for the bassists. All makes sense if you have played with a rhythm guitarist that insists on strumming all 6 strings.
On that basis it makes sense to keep away from the guitarists spectrum, so the C string is well into Guitard’s area.
Or this way be madness..,.
