A double bass has four strings, E,A,D, and G. It also has a bass clef, and is played by plucking or bowing the strings close to the bridge. Bass Guitars usually have the same four strings, but can sometimes have five, or six strings, a low B and a high C.

∙ 12y agoslip the string through the body and up the string, on my brothers warlock I used the headstock as a measuring stick almost, i stretched the string up to the end of the headstock than clipped off the extra part.
put the strings 2nd end that's loose into the machine head right down into it, than bend it so it can start to twist around the machine head like a 6 string guitar.
easy right? good luck

∙ 13y agoIt depends what bridge you have. But usually there will be some small Allen wrench screws that you will adjust to raise and lower the strings. But before you do this make sure you have de-tuned your guitar so the strings are loose to avoid them snapping under increased tension.
