The arrangement of strings itself is like that. G,D,A,E. We will get maximum number of occurrences of shapes of scales if strings are arranged in G,D,A,E manner. Scales means Do, Re, Mi, Fa, So, La, Ti, Do (that is Sa, Ri, Ga, Ma, Pa, Dha, Ni, Sa in Karnatak Sangeetam). As many number of scales, the more pitch matching songs we can play. Pitch match means if I am singing a song in C scale, the violin player should play the song in C scale. If violin player plays it in D scale or F scale, there is a mismatch of pitch between singer and violin player. If you want to reduce tuning to half step low, ask a question. If we tune violin half step low there is less probability of E string getting cut. All strings should be half step low. read less

The string E is very thin so if we tune it last, it takes less force to keep tight. Otherwise, the E string should be broken.

Will the wood used to make Violin influence the output of sound coming from Violin?
Absolutely! There lies the difference in sounds for a Stradivari and a locally made one! And even worse are factory-made violins!
