This might explain the confusion

*@*:~$ ls -l /bin/*sh
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root 701008 2007-08-27 05:41 /bin/bash
-rwxr-xr-x 1 root root  80308 2007-07-29 23:15 /bin/dash
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      4 2007-08-27 08:23 /bin/rbash -> bash
lrwxrwxrwx 1 root root      4 2006-10-10 11:19 /bin/sh -> dash

/bin/sh is a link to dash.

bash however is the default user shell. Just created via adduser:
testuser:x:1002:1002:,,,:/home/testuser:/bin/bash
