The lowest note on the violin is the G below middle C. On the viola, the C below that. On the cello it is the C the octave below that, and on the double bass is the E below that. However, there are some 5 string double bass instruments that have a C string an octave below the C on the cello. (The double bass is tuned in fourths rather than fifths. Some one else will have to answer the question if the 5 string double bass is tuned C then E or C then G.)
