Standard tuning strings. This is done to simplify fingering. A few guitarists, mostly those using tapping, play without this interval, instead tuning in all fourths; thus on a six-string guitar the top two strings become C and F instead of B and E.

In some songs, such as "My Last Serenade" by Killswitch Engage, the guitars are tuned to Dropped C
