Given this category, I have to assume you are talking about electric bass guitar. If that is the case, then I can tell you that more bassists still play four string basses than all five and six string bass players combined.

What are the note names on a 5 string bass?

Five strings usually tuned B-E-A-D-G, which provides extended lower range. Five string basses tuned to B-E-A-D-G (and sometimes A-D-G-C-F) are often used in contemporary rock and metal alongside seven string guitars, baritone guitars, and otherwise downtuned instruments. Another common tuning used on early 5 string basses is E-A-D-G-C, known as "tenor tuning". This is still a popular tuning for jazz and solo bass. Other tunings such as C-E-A-D-G are used though rare. The 5th string provides a greater lower or upper range than the 4-string bass, and gives access to more notes for any given hand position. * http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bass_guitar

Although the 4003 is kind of an improved 4001, still many bassists prefer the 4001, finally discontinued in the 80's. I guess it's personal preferences cause the 4003 is a great quality instrument.
