The common mandolin having a tuning identical to the violin, the mandola down a fifth with tuning matching the viola, the mandocello down an octave from the mandola to match the cello and the mandobass, like its orchestral cousin tuned in fourths EADG (this last is also the only one of the mandolin orchestra instruments to not have doubled strings in each course, although other mandolin family instruments have single strings in each course.
