Tuning machines (with spiral metal worm gears) are mounted on the back of the headstock on the bass guitar neck. The standard design for the electric bass guitar has four strings, tuned E, A, D and G, in fourths such that the open highest string, G, is an eleventh (an octave and a fourth) below middle C, making the tuning of all four strings the same as that of the double bass (E 1 –A 1 –D ...
