Silly Question

if i'm reading a tab and it says to hit 0 on an A chord where do i put my finger on the fret board???.....do i put it at the very edge of the neck as if it was another fret or do i just hit the chord without using a fret?.....i just started playing bass two days ago so sorry if this sounds dumb...thanks for any help in advance

Might want to put this in the Tab, Technique, or General Instruction forum..

Im pretty sure what you're describing is an open A on the third string

There are no "Dumb" questions.It is good that you ask.
Anyway "o" means to play note on a open string. :)
