Do you play notes on electric guitar the same as on acoustic?
yes it is, as long as u have both guitars in the same tuning. the notes on the neck will be the same on any guitar just as long as both are tuned the same. for example say you have an acoustic and electric both tuned in standard, if you play the fifth fret on your acoustics 6th(top) string it would be an A. likewise if you were to pick up the electric (remember it is in the same standard tuning) and play the same note on the same string it would also be an A. is that helpful?
What instrument family is the double bass?
It is a plucked, fretted, stringed electrophone. In other words, it has strings which are plucked; the strings are pressed down behind metal frets to determine pitch, and the instrument's sound is amplified electrically. Less technically, it is most closely related to the electric guitar, with some input from the orchestral double-bass, and it has acoustic ancestors including the Mando-bass, the Bass Banjo and the Contrabass Balalaika. The actual Acoustic Bass Guitar, however is a recent invention, dating from no earlier than the late 1960s.

How do you find the frets on a bass guitar?
Frets are marked on the bass guitar the same way as they are on the electric guitar or acoustic guitar. Metal lines run across the neck.

The frets are in the same positions but you should instinctively know where your fingers should be before advancing to fretless
