2. Perfect fifth - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Perfect_fifth

   The perfect fifth is a basic element in the construction of major and minor triads, and their extensions. Because these chords occur frequently in much music, the perfect fifth occurs just as often. However, since many instruments contain a perfect fifth as an overtone, it is not unusual to omit the fifth of a chord (especially in root position).

3. All fifths tuning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_fifths_tuning

   Among guitar tunings, all-fifths tuning refers to the set of tunings in which each interval between consecutive open strings is a perfect fifth. All-fifths tuning is also called fifths, perfect fifths, or mandoguitar. [1] The conventional "standard tuning" consists of perfect fourths and a single major third between the g and b strings: E-A-d-g ...

4. Guitar tunings - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guitar_tunings

   To build chords, Fripp uses "perfect intervals in fourths, fifths and octaves", so avoiding minor thirds and especially major thirds, [64] which are slightly sharp in equal temperament tuning (in comparison to thirds in just intonation). It is a challenge to adapt conventional guitar-chords to new standard tuning, which is based on all-fifths ...

5. New standard tuning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/New_standard_tuning

   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).

6. Circle of fifths - Wikipedia

   Therefore, it contains a diminished fifth, in C major between B and F. See structure implies multiplicity. The circle progression is commonly a circle of fifths through the diatonic chords, including one diminished chord. A circle progression in C major with chords I–IV–vii o –iii–vi–ii–V–I is shown below.

7. Regular tuning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular_tuning

   The shifting of chords is especially simple for the regular tunings that repeat their open strings, in which case chords can be moved vertically: Chords can be moved three strings up (or down) in major-thirds tuning, [3] and chords can be moved two strings up (or down) in augmented-fourths tuning. Regular tunings thus appeal to new guitarists ...
