Which notes do you tune a guitar on?

Question

What note is the thinnest string? and which notes are the other strings? How many notes are between each note? Is it an octave every 4, or every how many?
please only answer if you know.

THANKYOU!!!

Answer 1

From thinnest to thickest:
E B G D A E

Tune from the thickest to the thinnest. Each string is tuned a forth (five frets) higher in pitch than the thicker string next to it, except from the third thinnest to the 2nd thinnest is only an interval of a major third (equivilent to 4 frets).

12 frets make an octave.

Do not use harmonics to tune. That will give you "just" intonation instead of the "even temperment" of modern western music.

Answer 2

E is your thinnest string.BGDAE are the rest starting with the High E and working backward.The interval between is a 4th except for B-G ,which is a third.It is five half steps between notes(4th).A half step equals one fret on your guitar.Newer bands use alternate tunings tuning down a half step or more.Some tune as low as C.But the interval is always the same.You should learn how to use harmonics to tune.Its quicker for me.If you don't know what harmonics are,ask another question and I'll be glad to assist you.

Answer 3

from bigist to smallist strings are E A D G B E
as for your other questions those are more music theory type stuff.
there are always eight notes between ever octave(A B C D E F G) each string usualy has about 2 and a half octaves.

Answer 4

Thinnest string = High E string and next in order to the fattest string are:

B
G
D
A
E

Each is tuned a fifth above the other

Answer 5

You can actually tune your guitar to different chords if you want.
Phil S has the standard tuning, that's probably what you want.

Answer 6

E-A-d-g-b-e' from bottom string to top.
