Aug 4, 2022 at 14:11 comment added Yorik one minor point to mention is that if the guitar intonation if off, then this method of tuning may give you well-tuned strings at the 5th fret area, bu the open chords are sometimes out of tune. If you hear this, maybe get it set up properly

Jul 30, 2022 at 6:55 comment added Tim EADGBE might be top to bottom physically, but guitarists know the top string to be the thin E. Therefore it's clearer to state 'bottom to top' as being EADGBE.. And - 5 'notes' away is better stated as 5 'semitones' away. We don't call each fret a note, in interval terms. Pretty sure this is a dupe, also!

Jul 29, 2022 at 19:35 comment added John Belzaguy It’s standard knowledge that the B is a major 3rd from the G, not a perfect 4th like all other strings. When taught, the 5th fret method of tuning accounts for this exception by using the 4th fret only to tune the B string with the G.
