Why is high E the first string?
This theory is sound, even to the 9 and 10 string guitars we see now (With the exception of the Yepes 10-string Classical). The 9th is always assumed the lowest, and the 1st is always that high E we know and love (assuming no down-tuning).
What string is the high E?
Then moving down the fretboard, the 5th string (the A string) is tuned to A, the 4th string (D string) is tuned to D, the 3rd string (G string) is tuned to G, the 2nd string (B string) is tuned to B and the 1st string (high E string) is tuned to E.
Can I use B string for high E?
Re: Using a B string for the high E string. Yes. It would snap, and the tension trying to get an E would damage the neck. I wouldn't advise replacing a string from a different gauge set either; even if it is the same string you have spare.27 abr 2011

Can you play guitar without high E?
Yes it is possible. If it's just the high E string missing then it should be quite easy to learn most chords and any riffs you may want to learn as not many require that string. If any other string is missing it'll be quite difficult. You won't be doing much solos with any missing strings though.
Why does my high E string sound off?
If the frets become worn and flat, your string length will change because the contact point on the fret has changed and your intonation will be off. If you have some deep grooves, or some of your frets are worn down, you may need to have the frets dressed, and re-crowned.3 dic 2015
