3. List of guitar tunings - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_guitar_tunings

   (Certain microtonal scales, particularly quarter tones, can be played on a standard guitar solely by adjusting tunings, but the distance between notes on the scale makes it somewhat impractical.) It is possible to play microtonal scales on a fretless guitar , to convert a fretted guitar into a fretless, or to make a custom neck with a specific ...

4. Guitar tunings - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guitar_tunings

   The irregular major third breaks the fingering patterns of scales and chords, so that guitarists have to memorize multiple chord shapes for each chord. Scales and chords are simplified by major thirds tuning and all-fourths tuning, which are regular tunings maintaining the same musical interval between consecutive open string notes. [3]

5. Scale (music) - Wikipedia

   Such labeling requires the choice of a "first" note; hence scale-degree labels are not intrinsic to the scale itself, but rather to its modes. For example, if we choose A as tonic, then we can label the notes of the C major scale using A = 1, B = 2, C = 3, and so on. When we do so, we create a new scale called the A minor scale.

6. Harmonization - Wikipedia

   A harmonized scale can be created by using each note of a musical scale as a root note for a chord and then by taking other tones within the scale building the rest of a chord. [3] For example, using an Ionian (major scale) the root note would become the I major chord, the second note the ii minor chord, the third note the iii minor chord,

7. A♯ (musical note) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A%E2%99%AF_(musical_note)

   This note lies a chromatic semitone above A and a diatonic semitone below B, thus being enharmonic to B ♭ (French: si bémol). When calculated in equal temperament with a reference of A above middle C as 440 Hz, the frequency of the A ♯ above middle C is approximately 466.164Hz. [1] See pitch (music) for a discussion of historical ...
