5 String Bass Guitars

5 String Bass Guitars

Five-string basses are normally tuned B-E-A-D-G, with a lower B string in addition to the four strings of a normal bass guitar which adds a lower B-string for additional range of playing. In comparison to a traditional 4-string bass, a 5 String Bass lets the musician use lower notes and gives a wider choice of scales, arpeggios and chords.
