Does the ukulele have the same four strings as the bass guitar?
The double bass is much like the string bass, but it is also known as an upright bass, and commonly used in symphonies. It can be played with fingers, (pizzicato) but is usually played with a bow, like a violin. It looks like a big violin, and is played with the bottom of it, (opposite of where you tune the strings) at your feet, and the top around where your head is, while you are sitting down.
Can you mix strings of different gauge sets on your bass guitar?
Yes, I do it all the time. I can't quite set up my pickup to process the higher frequencies properly, so the low E string tends to dominate the amplification. I have even put a 5 string set low B where the low E usually goes. Don't worry about your neck, thicker strings actually have less tension. Kevlarster Almost every double bass has four strings. But sometimes you will find a fifth lower string on a few double basses(this fifth string is much more common on bass guitars). Instead of the fifth string most orchestral bassists opt to get what is called an extension. An extension is a piece of wood built onto the top of the bass and extends the length of the string another four notes lower. With a longer then normal fourth string you can now play almost as low as a five string bass. Composers like these lower notes because they allow a bassist to play a full octave below the cello and it sounds cool too!

Does a double bass have the biggest string?
Generally speaking, yes. The strings on a bass are longer than those on the nearest contender, the cello. They also tend to be thicker, because they are often made of different material. When cello and bass strings are made of the same materials, using the same processes, the G (top) string of the bass may be the same or smaller thickness as the C (lowest) string of the 'cello. But then, the bass continues down four more strings!

How do you know what scale length your double bass is?
On any bass - acoustic or electric - the scale length is the distance from the nut at the top of the fretboard to the bridge or bridge saddle. The "A" string is usually used to make the measurement.

What is the difference between four and five string bass guitars?
Bass Guitars A four string bass has an open string arrangement consisting of E, A , D , and G (from thickest to thinnest). This is the standard bass arrangement. The five string bass also has the E, A, D, and G arrangement, but adds an extra low B string above the E. This allows for a broader reach in note pitch since you are allowed for extra notes with the B string. For instance, on a standard four string bass you would have to tune down the E string two frets to get the dropped D pitch. But with a five string bass, there is no need to tune your E string since the D can be played on the third fret of the newly added fifth string (the B string). This lower B is especially popular with the modern hard rock/thrash metal crowd, and some of the screamo bands. For many players, there is a struggle with the low-b being "sloppy", which can largely be corrected by using a longer scale neck (35" at a minimum) and/or a different brand or gauge of strings Standard four string bass: E A D G Five string bass: B E A D G Six string bass: B E A D G C NB: you can also, if you wish, instead of using the extra string for a low B, you can retune the first four strings into standard tuning, I.e, E-A-D-G, and have the highest string as a high C. This arrangement is used quite frequently by bassists who prefer tighter strings, and an extra range up high, as well as getting a deeper, more bass-y sound from the thicker E string.
