Augmented-fourths tuning
http://dbpedia.org/resource/Augmented-fourths_tuning an entity of type: Thing
Among alternative tunings for guitar, each augmented-fourths tuning is a regular tuning in which the musical intervals between successive open-string notes are each augmented fourths. Because augmented fourths are alternatively called "tritones" ("tri-tones") or "diminished fifths", augmented-fourths tuning is also called tritone tuning or diminished-fifths tuning. The standard guitar-tuning E-A-d-g-b'-e' interjects exactly one major third amid four perfect fourths for the intervals between its successive open strings. In contrast, the augmented fourths tunings C-F♯-c-f♯-c'-f '♯ andB-F-b-f-b'-f'

In contrast, the augmented fourths tunings C-F♯-c-f♯-c'-f '♯ andB-F-b-f-b'-f' have only augmented-fourths intervals. The set of augmented-fourths tunings has three properties that simplify learning by beginners and improvisation by experts: Regular intervals, string repetition, and lefty-righty symmetry. These properties characterize augmented-fourths tunings among non-trivial tunings.

For every augmented-fourths tuning, the interval between successive open-strings is six semitones, half the circumference of the chromatic circle.
