Best Answer

The Bass Guitar only has 4 strings, but are thicker to create a deeper rhthym and beat.

Improvement: Some bass Guitars have more. like the war bass can have 11-12 i think but if your trying to find a good beginner bass id start with the four string one.

A bass guitar generally has 4 strings, E A D and G, while there are other varieties. A Low B ( B E A D G ) 5 string is also widely available, to enhance the Bass-y sounds one may wish to play with, as well as six string varieties, with an expanded upper range, and which are extremely difficult to play due to the wide fretboard, are also available, however less commonly than other variants.

The double bass has 4 strings. It is a classical instrument that is related to the violin and cello, but is the largest in this family.
There are basses that have more strings, but they are usually electric instruments, such as 5 or 6 stringed basses. As well, there are 8 and 12 string basses that have "duplicate strings" that are tuned to a higher octave to it's root string (similar to a 12-string guitar).

4. G (the highest), then D, A and E(the lowest). I personally have never seen a double-bass with any other number of strings, so if they do exist they must be pretty rare.

Six string bass is used by Jack Bruce, but four strings is common. There can be any number of strings on a bass, but it wouldn't make sense to make one with 55 strings.

Can you learn guitar and bass?

Guitar and bass are very similar. They both have a similar build and use basically the same overall technique, with many nuance differences. The guitar has six strings, and the bass has four. The four strings on a bass are the same as the four lowest sounding strings on a guitar. The biggest differences between the two are that the guitar uses chords and scales, whereas the bass uses mostly just scales, and the guitar has two more strings than a bass. Since the guitar uses chords and has two more strings, it is a little bit trickier to learn than the bass. Therefor, if you know guitar fairly well, you should be able to play bass without ever taking a lesson, whereas if you know bass fairly well, it will be a little bit more effort to learn the guitar.
