A quick rerminder: 3 April is right around the corner!

And it turns out I was wrong about the bass guitar and the double bass having the same "scale length" (distance from nut to bridge), which explains why I was having to work harder to play in tune than I thought I would. But they're pretty close. The bass guitar is 34.5" (~87 cm) and the double bass is 39.5" (~100 cm). Close enough that everything is familiar, just far enough apart that I can't quite just let my fingers land where they would if I were playing bass guitar. Still, it shouldn't take me long to get in tune on it.
