tuned TO an interval Explanation: Get familiar with this! They’re all tuned to an interval of a fourth. Meaning, the low E bass string is four whole steps to the low A bass string ex. ( e,f,g,a,)-(1,2,3,4,). -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 42 mins (2006-01-18 07:36:39 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- A few more references: The erhu is tuned to an interval of a fifth, the inside string (nearest to player) is tuned to D and outside to A. This is the same as the two middle strings of the violin. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erhu Topshur: two-stringed instrument, carved from pine and covered with leather, using strings made from horse-tails and tuned to an interval of a fourth http://pedia.nodeworks.com/M/MU/MUS/Music_of_Altai Sure, since the G and B strings are tuned to an interval of a third. How about fifths and sixths? Well, I can actually use my guitar to demonstrate any interval. Pick a string. Pick a fret. If you can't sound it out, write it out http://www.guitarnoise.com/print_article.php?id=7 Reference: http://www.webspawner.com/users/ghost43/ |
