a contrab-ss is a large european stringed instrument that belongs to the viol family. it produces deep (and very low) notes with a rich sound. it’s lowest note is the e string (although this can be lowered even further with the help of a c extension or an additional string) which is the equivilant of the e two octaves below middle c on piano. the contrb-ss is common (although not nearly as common as a cello or violin) in jazz or cl-ssical pieces, although does not go very far in many other genres. generally, the contrab-ss plays the harmony and is rarely given solos.
contrab-ss belongs to the string family and reads in the b-ss clef.
