It is customary among players to give the tunings string reversed, as guitar EADGBE, as if the strings were a chord being played from the lowest note to the highest. Starting the list with the first string is more convenient IMO because when such instruments vary as to the number or octavation of strings, the differences are always on the thumb end rather than the finger end. Differences in tuning the first few strings are more likely to prompt a different name for the instrument. If I could vote, it is not to reverse any more. I think I gave this same argument many years ago and lost, but I enjoy a high vindication rate. ;-) Regards, daveA -- Guitar teaching materials and original music for all styles and levels.
