The pitches are as follows: The table below shows a pitch's name found over the six strings of a guitar in standard tuning, from the nut (zero), to the twelfth fret. For four strings, the 5th fret on one string is the same open-note as the next string; for example, a 5th-fret note on the sixth string is the same note as the open fifth string.
Classical guitar with additional strings which has various tunings. The Yepes 10-string guitar adds four strings (resonators) tuned in such a way that they (along with the other three bass strings) can resonate in sympathy with any of the 12 chromatic notes (or their primary harmonics) that can occur on the higher strings; the idea behind this being an attempt at enhancing and balancing sonority. The tuning of the Yepes ten-string guitar is: Or, written enharmonically: The eleven-string alto guitar was developed by Swedish luthier Georg Bolin in the 1960s, and Bolin "altgitarren" (Swedish for "the alto guitar", plural "altgitarrer") are now rare and valuable.
