The word bass has two main meanings with separate pronunciations - bass with a high vowel sound (like base) ironically refers to very low sounds - bass instruments and singers are in the lowest part of the musical range, like the low rumble of a bass guitar. If you say bass with a low vowel sound, it's a type of fish.

The word bass comes from Middle English bars, meaning "perch", despite that none of the commonly referred bass species belong to the perch family Percidae.

There are two different pronunciations for this word in music it is said as bass bass as in the instrument. Or the low pitch sounds bass now talking about the fish.

So predictably, the the musical term for a low sound was "basso", which was borrowed into English as "bass". Taking inspiration from the already-existing and very common word "base", the English pronunciation of "bass" also became "base".
