I notice the bass player is using a 5 string bass. What note is the extra string tuned to? I'm guessing B the same as a regular guitar




Usually the 5th string is a LOW B and then the standard E-A-D-G above it. A high B doesn't serve much purpose because you are above what a guitar can play. Now, that being said, you can do whatever you like. I have played with bass players that use a 4 string string bass with a low B and play B-E-A-D too, so whatever you like to do works fine.
