Viols are string instruments popular during the Renaissance and Baroque periods, characterized by their fretted necks, flat backs, and varied sizes, including treble, alto, tenor, and bass. They are typically played with a bow and have a softer, more mellow tone compared to modern violins. Viol music often features intricate counterpoint, and these instruments were commonly used in consort settings. Unlike violins, viols are held between the legs when played, which contributes to their distinct playing technique.

Renaissance viols
Viols are string instruments popular during the Renaissance and Baroque periods, characterized by their fretted necks, flat backs, and varied sizes, including treble, alto, tenor, and bass. They are typically played with a bow and have a softer, more mellow tone compared to modern violins. Viol music often features intricate counterpoint, and these instruments were commonly used in consort settings. Unlike violins, viols are held between the legs when played, which contributes to their distinct playing technique.
Viols were typically tuned in fifths, similar to modern string instruments, but their specific tuning often varied by type. The most common tuning for the treble viol was C-G-D-A, while the bass viol was tuned similarly, but an octave lower. Viols could also be tuned in different ways for specific musical contexts or personal preferences, sometimes using alternative tunings like C-G-D-A for the tenor viol. The use of frets allowed players to adjust their finger placement for various tunings.
Its official name is the bass viol, although it is seldom referred to as such. It is actually of a different type than the rest of the string instruments (violin, viola, and cello)- it is part of the older group of instruments called viols. The viols were popular during the renaissance, and featured sloped shoulders and different shaped resonance holes (F holes) than the violin family. Viols came in all different sizes, and the smaller ones eventually evolved into the violin family. For some reason, however, the bass never came along with the rest of them, and has remained in the old style. Another name for the bass is the contrabass.
