The double bass is a bowed, low-pitched string instrument used in symphonic orchestras. It is the largest and lowest-pitched instrument in the string family. Its strings can be plucked or played with a bow. It is extensively used in playing Western classical music, blues, jazz, rock and roll, and bluegrass music.
Sound: Before purchasing a double bass, test the sound of each string to ensure it produces a rich and full sound. The sound of your instrument should be well-balanced in all its strings and in whatever playing position.
