Im gonna try to explain this in a simple way, think of the bass as the pulse of every song. it's a little hard to spot at first but just look for the deepest sound carrying the melody cause that's usually the bass.



It's easy to spot the bass in this song cause the song starts with it, i had the same problem when i first started listening to rock music but in my case was that i couldn't spot the sound of the kickdrum in songs.

All music is layered so you have to train your ears to start recognising each layer but that comes with time so don't worry, one day you'll be able to make out the bass from the guitar.
