I prefer 5 strings as shown below.
I'll try again to post audio low notes on my 1820 Abraham Prescott Double Bass Viol.

Choose from the following:
1. Swanee River in C, 1291 KB mp3 format
2. The Elephant in Bb, 4 notes lower than original key 4753 KB mp3 format
By the way, my Prescott is on loan to a major orchestra player while I recover from illness.
No, it is not for sale. However I will return phone calls for offers exceeding $90,000.00 (Ninety Thousand Dollars, Greenback American Type). Or, it might be donated to someone presently in mind. Ahh, make that $100,000.00 cash or certified check.
