The dominant seventh (V7) chord G7=(G,B,D,F) increases the tension with the tonic (I) chord C. Adding a minor seventh to a major triad creates a dominant seventh (denoted V7). In music theory, the "dominant seventh" described here is called a major-minor seventh, emphasizing the chord's construction rather than its usual function. [27]
High C – E-A-d-g-c' Standard tuning with the B tuned a half step higher to C to emulate a six-string bass guitar, minus the low B. This is an all fourths tuning. Celloblaster or Guitello – C-G-d-a-e' An all fifths tuning as used on cello or mandolin, extended to five strings.
For the English guitar, the open chord is C major (C–E–G–C–E–G); [26] for the Russian guitar, which has seven strings, it is G major (D–G–B–D–G–B–D). [ 27 ] [ 28 ] When the open strings constitute a minor chord, the open tuning may sometimes be called a cross-note tuning.

The irregularity has a price. Chords cannot be shifted around the fretboard in the standard tuning E–A–D–G–B–E, which requires four chord-shapes for the major chords. There are separate chord-forms for chords having their root note on the third, fourth, fifth, and sixth strings. [2]
Chord diagrams for some common chords in major-thirds tuning. In music, a chord diagram (also called a fretboard diagram or fingering diagram) is a diagram indicating the fingering of a chord on fretted string instruments, showing a schematic view of the fretboard with markings for the frets that should be pressed when playing the chord. [1]
D–G–D–G–B–D (low to high). An open-G tuning allows a G-major chord to be strummed on all six strings with neither fretting of the left hand nor a capo. Like other open tunings, it allows the eleven major chords besides G major each to be strummed by barring at most one finger on exactly one fret. [1]
New standard tuning (NST) is an alternative tuning for the guitar that approximates all-fifths tuning.The guitar's strings are assigned the notes C2-G2-D3-A3-E4-G4 (from lowest to highest); the five lowest open strings are each tuned to an interval of a perfect fifth {(C,G),(G,D),(D,A),(A,E)}; the two highest strings are a minor third apart (E,G).
