General Features:
Tuning:The most common tuning for the requinto is 4 notes up from the prime guitar.This means that the tuning is A D G C E A.The requinto is notated as if it were tuned conventionally, so that the instruction to play the open first string is written as an instruction to play E. When played, a A comes out, 4 notes higher.What this means is that the requinto guitar reads from the same notation as classical (prime) guitar, and is played with the same technique - nothing is different except that the notes come out higher in pitch than the notation suggests. Once the requinto is tuned, the different tuning can be forgotten about
