Often used in Old Time music, this is referred to as "Double C" Tuning because the banjo has two C strings. This is referred to as "Open G" Tuning because the banjo is tuned to an open G chord, meaning that if you strum the banjo without fingering any of the strings on the neck you will be playing a G chord.
