In general, we may say that some sins have more harmful consequences than others if they bring more dishonor to God or if they cause more harm to ourselves, to others, or to the church. Moreover, those sins that are done willfully, repeatedly, and knowingly, with a calloused heart, are more displeasing to God than those that are done out of ignorance and are not repeated, or are done with a mixture of good and impure motives and are followed by remorse and repentance (Wayne Grudem and Jeff Purswell).

Well, I tune my four-string D-A-D-G so playing songs down in D or Eb on
a four-string isn't a problem. Nevertheless, I also play a six-string
and to me the advantage of having extra strings is not really in just
the extra range but in the way it compacts the area you have to cover.
With a six string bass I can cover a lot of range just between the 5th
and 12th frets.

But I think I'm alone in my opinion that a 5-string bass is a bad
comprimse between 4 and 6 🙂
