When twisted to angles near 1{\deg}, graphene multilayers provide a new window on electron correlation physics by hosting gate-tuneable strongly-correlated states, including insulators, superconductors, and unusual magnets. Here we report the discovery of a new member of the family, density-wave states, in double bilayer graphene twisted to 2.37{\deg}. At this angle the moir\'e states retain much of their isolated bilayer character, allowing their bilayer projections to be separately controlled by gates. We use this property to generate an energetic overlap between narrow isolated electron and hole bands with good nesting properties. Our measurements reveal the formation of ordered states with reconstructed Fermi surfaces, consistent with density-wave states, for equal electron and hole densities. These states can be tuned without introducing chemical dopants, thus opening the door to a new class of fundamental studies of density-waves and their interplay with superconductivity and other types of order, a central issue in quantum matter physics.
