How to tune Guitar

Hello Guitarists

Moving to my second post I would likely to post about most curious topic for beginners "How to tune Guitar"

Most simple way is to use a tuner.. if u don't have it then u can get it from any local music store ..

Another most common technique is 5th fret tuning .... so here it goes as 

Relative tuning using the 5th fret method

Start with the lowest E string, this will be your base point for tuning the other strings. Again, it doesn't matter if the low E is in fact nearer to an Eb, because the other strings will be tuned in relation to whatever note that 1st string is.

1) Fret the low E string at fret 5

2) Still fretting the low E string, play the open A string above it:

3) If the open A string sounds lower than the E string at fret 5, tune it up until it sounds exactly the same note:

If the open A string sounds higher than the E string at fret 5, first tune it downlower, then tune it up until it sounds exactly the same note...

Note: Tuning up ensures the string's tension is locked and will therefore stay in tune longer.

4) Repeat the same process, but with the A string at fret 5 and the D string open - tune up or down until the A string at fret 5 and the open D string become the same note.

5) Repeat the same process, but with the D string at fret 5 and the G string open - tune up or down until the D string at fret 5 and the open G string become the same note.



6) This is where it changes slightly, because the tuning interval between the G and B string is different. Instead of tuning to the 5th fret, fret the G string at fret 4. Then just follow the same process of tuning the B string up or down until it becomes the same note as the G string at fret 4.



7) Finally, it's back to the usual 5th fret method, with the B string at fret 5 and the open high E string. Follow the same tuning process as before!



So, you should now know how to tune a guitar anywhere! Play a few chords to see how accurately you tuned up, and make any tweaks necessary (the guitar's tension is altered slightly for each string you tune so you may need to go back and have a tweak)

Over time your ear will become more accurately trained to matching up those notes, and you'll eventually find this to be the quickest and easiest way to tune up for playing by yourself.
