Re: How to tune a guitar?

Either

1) Buy a tuner

or two

Tune your top E string (the thick one) to a piano or other instrument first. After you have tuned this correctly, hold down the fifth fret of the same string, and tune the next one to this sound. That is your "A" note. Tune the rest in order as shown



E (hold down 5th fret to tune A)
A (after tuning correctly to an A, hold down 5th fret to tune your D)
D (hold down fifth to tune your G)
G (this is the one that's different. Instead of holding down the 5th fret to tune your B, you instead hold down the forth fret in order to produce a B sound which you can then tune your B string)
B (Finally, hold down the fifth fret, and tune this to your E)
E

Hope this helps.

If this is confusing, try this website.
