Dude, ur post subject has nothing to do wif wat u wrote there! no harm done, but anyways, standard tuning means if ur using an electric guitar, or an acoustic etc, it'll be like tis,


1st E
2nd B
3rd G
4th D
5th A
6th E

6th, 5th and 4th will the top (bass) 3 strings,
3rd, 2nd and 1st will be the bottom (lead/treble or wateva u call it!!!) 3 strings.

6th, 5th and 4th will always be the same for all guitars!
3rd, 2nd and 1st will be nylon for classical guits & steel for acoustic!

Hope tis clears ur doubt!

Do take note dat there are other tuning scales!
Most popular ones are D tuning or A.K.A Drop D

Cheers!

You can hear the difference in pitch much more easily if you have something to compare to.... like if you have a backing track @ 440 but your guitar is at 441 or something else... whatever you play just will not be in tune.
