Guitar Tunings Series - Part 1 (Standard Tuning)



Welcome to the greatest guitar blog ever made in your lifetime. This blog is here to inform new guitar players in the many ways a guitar can be played. This series of posts will cover different tunings that can be played on the guitar. 


Standard Tuning

This tuning is the one most commonly used by guitar players. EADGBe is another term that is used to refer to standard tuning. This refers to the notes played from the bottom string (thickest width) to the top string (thinnest width) This table from Wikipedia can help you tune your guitar. 


What makes the guitar such a unique instrument is the various tunings that it can be played in. Most songs on the radio are played in standard tunings. The standard guitar tuning is very versatile, and can play a wide range of keys, which is why it is referred to as standard tuning. You can use a capo to increase the pitch of the strings.
