'''The important thing to realize about the 2nd and 3rd strings is that they are tuned to a major 3rd, not a perfect 4th''' (G - B is a major third). This changes intervals shapes as well as how one plays scales between the strings, compared to all the other pairs of strings

== Intervals between 2nd and 3rd String ==The M3 tuning between strings means the interval shapes we learned in the [[1st and 2nd Strings - Intervals|last lesson]] will be a little different. Basically, all you have to remember is that a major third is one semi-tone lower than a perfect fourth. Which means we need to move upwards one fret on the 2nd string to get the same intervals on the 2nd and 3rd strings. Let's do a quick example:

===Scales=between 2nd and 3rd Strings==
Now let's look at a scale. Let's play B to G on the 1st and 2nd strings:
