What are the notes on an electric guitar?

The strings on an electric guitar are tuned to the following notes,

from lowest to highest:

* E

* A

* D

* G

* B

* E

These notes are the same as the open strings of a standard acoustic guitar. However, on an electric guitar, the strings can be bent and stretched to produce different notes. This is called "bending strings." Guitar strings can also be plucked or strummed for a different and unique sound.
