A bass musical instrument produces tones in the low-pitched range C4- C2. Basses belong to different families of instruments and can cover a wide range of musical roles. Since producing low pitches usually requires a long air column or string, the string and wind bass instruments are usually the largest instruments in their families or instrument classes.

  • A bass musical instrument produces tones in the low-pitched range C4- C2. Basses belong to different families of instruments and can cover a wide range of musical roles. Since producing low pitches usually requires a long air column or string, the string and wind bass instruments are usually the largest instruments in their families or instrument classes. As seen in the musical instrument classification article, categorizing instruments can be difficult. For example, some instruments fall into more than one category. The cello is considered a tenor instrument in some orchestral settings, but in a string quartet it is the bass instrument. Examples grouped by general form and playing technique include: * Plucked string instruments, primary bass guitar and to a lesser extent acoustic bass guitar and even less often, folk instruments like contrabass guitar, guitarrón mexicano, tololoche, bass banjo or bass balalaika, instruments shaped, constructed and held (or worn) like guitars, that play in the bass range. The electric bass guitar is usually the instrument referred to as a "bass" in pop and rock music. The electric bass guitar, while invented in the 1930s by Paul Tutmarc, was first mass-produced by Leo Fender in 1951 and quickly replaced the more unwieldy double bass among non-classical musicians. * Bowed string instruments, primary double bass (usually the instrument referred to as a "bass" in European classical music and jazz, sometimes called a "string bass" to differentiate it from a "brass bass" or "bass horn", or an "upright bass" to differentiate it from a "bass guitar") and to a lesser extent cello from the viol or violin family and violone from viola da gamba family. It was first developed in 16th century Europe. While being bowed instruments, they can be played pizzicato, which is a standard double bass technique in jazz, blues and rockabilly. * A bass singer has the lowest vocal range of all voice types, typically a range extending from around the second E below middle C to the E above middle C (i.e., E2–E4). * A bass horn, such as a tuba, serpent, and sousaphone from the wind family and low-tuned versions of specific types of brass and woodwind instruments, such as bassoon, bass clarinet, bass trombone and bass saxophone, etc. (less common usage). The serpent was invented around the end of the 15th century, with lower instruments, such as the bass-tuba appearing over subsequent centuries. * Keyboard bass, a keyboard alternative to the bass guitar or double bass (e.g. the Fender Rhodes piano bass in the 1960s or 13-note MIDI keyboard controllers in the 2000s). This instrument peaked in popularity during the late 1970s and early 1980s, being particularly associated with the synth pop genre. * Bass pedalboard, a keyboard operated by feet found at the base of the console of most pipe organs, pedal pianos, theatre organs, and electric organs. * Washtub bass, a simple folk instrument. Also known as a "gutbucket", it is generally believed to have derived from the African ground bow. A musician playing one of these instruments is often known as a bassist. Other more specific terms such as 'bass guitarist', 'double bassist', 'bass player', etc. may also be used. (en)
  • La termino baso signifas en muziko fakte nenion pli ol voĉregistro (kiel tenoro, baritono, aldo aŭ soprano). En la ĉiutaga lingvo ĝi tamen nomas malsamajn instrumentojn de ĉi tiu registro, t.e tiujn instrumentojn, kiu en muzika ensemblo transprenas la baslinion. La baso kiel konkreta instrumento ne ekzistas. Ankaŭ kantisto kun malalta voĉregistro nomiĝas baso. (eo)
  • Mit dem Wort Bass wird in der Musik fachsprachlich streng genommen lediglich eine tiefe Stimmlage zur Abgrenzung von z. B. Tenor, Bariton, Alt oder Sopran bezeichnet. In anderen Kontexten wird der Ausdruck aber auch als Synonym für Instrumente dieser Tonlage verwendet, d. h. jene Instrumente, die in einer Gruppe von Musikern die Basslinie übernehmen. Den Bass als ein bestimmtes Instrument gibt es nicht. Im allgemeinen Sprachgebrauch sind damit – geprägt durch die moderne Musik (Jazz, Rock, Pop, Weltmusik) – meist Kontrabässe oder Instrumente gemeint, die mit dem Kontrabass verwandt sind (E-Bass, akustische Bassgitarre). In unterschiedlichen musikalischen Feldern können auch noch weitere Instrumente, etwa die Tuba bei den Blechbläsern und die Bassklarinette sowie das Basssaxophon bei den Holzbläsern als Bass bezeichnet werden. Auch Sänger mit der Gesangsstimme Bass werden oft verkürzend so bezeichnet. (de)

  • Il termine basso descrive uno strumento musicale in grado di produrre suoni nel registro grave difficilmente udibili, specialmente durante i concerti live. I bassi comprendono diverse famiglie di strumenti: generalmente hanno una funzione di accompagnamento e sostegno armonico della melodia, come nella pratica del basso continuo, ma possono coprire una vasta gamma di ruoli musicali. Producendo suoni di bassa frequenza, di solito richiedono una lunga colonna d'aria o lunghe corde: solitamente i bassi tra i cordofoni e i fiati sono gli strumenti più grandi delle rispettive famiglie. Alcuni esempi suddivisi per forma generale e tecnica di esecuzione: * il contrabbasso, della famiglia della viola o del violino (lo strumento cui ci si riferisce come "basso" nella musica classica e nel jazz); * il basso elettrico, strumento dalla forma di chitarra elettrica, che suona nel registro grave (lo strumento cui ci si riferisce spesso come "basso" nella musica pop e nel rock), e il basso acustico, ad esso simile ma con una cassa armonica simile alla chitarra acustica; * corno basso, come la tuba, il serpentone e il sousafono, e versioni basse di specifici tipi di strumenti a fiato, come il fagotto, il trombone, il clarinetto basso e il sassofono basso; * la grancassa, in inglese bass drum. Un musicista che suona il basso elettrico (chitarra basso) o il basso acustico è definito bassista, mentre chi suona il contrabbasso è definito contrabbassista. Suonatore di basso, chitarrista-bassista ecc. sono definizioni poco usate in Italia (a differenza di altri Paesi). (it)
  • Ett basinstrument är ett musikinstrument i basläge, alltså det lägsta tonregistret (ibland noterat som under cirka 200 Hz). Ordet kommer från medeltidslatinets bassus ('låg'), via italienskans basso och franskans basse med samma betydelse. I vissa sammanhang används prefixet för att ange lågt tonregister. Kända inledningar med framträdande bas finns i I bergakungens sal (Peer Gynt), satser i Nötknäpparen, Also sprach Zarathustra med flera. Ett styckes tema kan ibland spelas i basen, som till exempel i fugadelen i Bachs Toccata och fuga d-moll där melodin spelas på pedalklaviaturen (subbas). (sv)
  • O baixo, também conhecido como guitarra baixo ou mesmo viola baixo em Portugal, é um instrumento musical que apresenta características e , responsável, dentre outras funções, por fazer a ligação entre instrumentos harmônicos e melódicos (guitarra, violão, teclado/piano, saxofone) com os instrumentos percussivos (bateria, percussão). Pode ser acústico ou elétrico. O nome baixo pode ser dado também a específicos modelos de clássicas, mas que possuem timbre um pouco mais grave que a clássica tradicional; esta baixo clássica é afinada uma abaixo da tradicional, e não pertence a família dos baixos.
