| | Double bass - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Popular with bassists is Niccolo Paganini's Fantasy on a Theme by Rossini, a 20th-century trancription of the violin original. | | | The instrument is known by several other names (especially when used in folk, bluegrass, and jazz music), including string bass, upright bass, standup bass, acoustic bass, bass viol, contrabass viol, bass violin, doghouse bass, dog-house, bull fiddle, hoss bass, and bunkhouse bass. | | | The back of the instrument can vary from being a round, carved back similar to that of the violin, or a flat and angled back similar to the viol family (with variations in between). |

| | RIN:31 The String Instrument for the Soloist . |
| | As is appropriated, timbre tends to vary from violin to violin. | | | The violins that are now hundreds of years old were played as new instruments at the time of their origin and, quite logically, possessed tone color similar to a present-day instrument that is good and new. | | | If two violins, all four strings of which are in tonal balance with one another, produce euphony and approximately equal tonal volume in the player's ear, there is no valid reason to believe that space is going to offer greater resistance to a new violin simply due to antipathy directed against it. |
