What are the parts of a double bass?

Answer 1

The bassoon is adouble reed instrument. The reed is attached to a bocal (or crook) which is slipped into the tenor (wing) joint. The body of the bassoon is wrapped around itself in the boot joint which holds the bass joint, the longest one. The bell joint is at the end of the instrument where the sound comes out. The bassoon has a total of 16 thumb keys, 12 for the left and 4 for the right.

Answer 2

There is the neck (the long, thin part), the scroll (the big, heavy wooden thing at the top of the bass), the brigde (the wooden thing pointing out of the middle of the big, hollow area), the strings (E, A, D, G), the tuning pegs (the metal peices sticking out of the scroll), the body (the big hollow, wooden area), the F-holes (shaped like cursive F's on body), and the endpin (the metal part that can be pulled in and out of the bass). There are parts inside the bass, too, but these are the ones that are seen from the outside.
