There is a cultural element to this. Our western ears are mostly accustomed to music based on semitones (half-steps) and the standard scales and modes that Neil and Suzzane teach on this site, but a lot of eastern/oriental music is based on quarter-tones and scales that are quite different.

Fred,Thanks Catman, for the Wiki link. After looking it over I quickly realized there is more to this thing called music than I will ever understand. The guitar is truly a complicated instrument. And the broader subject of "music" reaches to the outer limits of science and art. Question to those more advanced: Why are some combinations of notes agreeable to us-- to our ears--(example: open chord C) than, say,
a dischordant combination? Any links for futher study?
Maybe I'm off subject here but the subject of what we as humans consider "good" (in tune) and what we might find disagreeable (noise) is very interesting to me. Any thoughts?
Esoterically yours, Fred from Muskogee
