Let's add some more intervals:

We are back in the key of E major and have the same melody on the E string, but the B string is doing something a little different. There's a little more depth to the piece now. Is that a good or bad thing? It's not necessarily either. Some melodies are suitable for rich harmony, but simple ones like this are usually fundamentally changed if such were added. For instance, try the following:
