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.
