The lowest string on a four string double bass is an E string. If you have a fairly rare five string double bass then the lowest fifth string is a B string.
it is cause the string bass has 4 strings so it belongs to the string family lol :D
The stringed bass/upright bass has the lowest register in the string family. The cello is also a bass string instrument, though it's not as low as the bass.
The highest open string pitch on a bass is a G.
Yes and Yes.
A five-string bass is used to expand the range of notes which can be played on it. Either you add a string that has higher notes, or a string that has lower notes, as compared to a four-string bass.
