2. List of guitar tunings - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_guitar_tunings

   The standard tuning, without the top E string attached. Alternative variants are easy from this tuning, but because several chords inherently omit the lowest string, it may leave some chords relatively thin or incomplete with the top string missing (the D chord, for instance, must be fretted 5-4-3-2-3 to include F#, the tone a major third above D).

3. Drop D tuning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drop_D_tuning

   Drop D tuning. Drop D tuning is an alternative form of guitar tuning in which the lowest (sixth) string is tuned down from the usual E of standard tuning by one whole step to D. [1] So where standard tuning is E 2 A 2 D 3 G 3 B 3 E 4 (EADGBe), drop D is D 2 A 2 D 3 G 3 B 3 E 4 (DADGBe).

   String gauge refers to the thickness and diameter of a guitar string, which influences the overall sound and pitch of the guitar depending on the guitar string used. [17] Some alternative tunings are difficult or even impossible to achieve with conventional guitars due to the sets of guitar strings, which have gauges optimized for standard tuning.

   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).

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 ...

9. All fifths tuning - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/All_fifths_tuning

   When playing in unison, this tuning also allow a chorus-like effect similar to the sound that the unison produces in 12 string guitars, but in a much smaller scale. It was developed to be used with a standard set of strings, for example a hybrid set of 0.9 strings, and without lowering too much the range of the electric guitar.
