On a 4-string bass the one nearet you leg (and the higghest sounding note) is G. The next one up is D, then A and finally E. On a 5 string you also have C, after the E
I know of four types of tuning. Standard=EADG, drop D=DADG, half step down, low B= BEAD, drop C=CADG. I am sure there are others.
Well, for one, string bass strings are a lot longer than electric bass strings. I wouldn't recommend putting string bass strings on an electric bass and vice versa.
Some electric bass guitars have more strings, but an upright bass traditionally has 4.
As I posted in your question about Ernie Ball bass strings, It's all a matter of opinion on bass strings. Try some different strings out, or ask around other Gibson players.
No. Bass is tuned in fourths, so going up you have E-A-D-G. Cello is tuned in fifths so you have C-G-D-A.
A normal Acoustic/Electric guitar has 6 strings, and a normal bass guitar has 4 strings. There are also guitars with more strings, i.e. a bass guitar with 5 strings.

the bass strings have to be thicker than guitar strings because a string needs to be thicker to accomodate more bass. This could make it seem like theyre "hard"

five, or six strings. The four string bass by far the most common
Yes, there are special acoustic bass guitar strings for acoustic bass guitars.
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.
Awesome strings
