i guess it's an interesting q what tuning a guitar ends up in... each string has a fixed frequency ratio among other notes on the same string but you can mess around with the ratios b/w strings. if you tune to EADGBE... a fourth, a fourth, a fourth, a third, a fourth... hmm

Hmm well I didn’t meant guitars bc of the frets. I played the cello, and I can play a note a little differently each time depending on context. I remember my first cello teacher telling me about this.
