  Hi All!
  I joined a couple weeks ago and will begin my guitar journey with the “30 Days to Play” course on Monday ;-). I have my guitar and a snark tuner ready to go. Is there a primer on how to tune the guitar before I start? I know I can find this online as I’ve done it before and completely forgotten but thought I’d ask first if this is also taught in the “30 Days to Play”. If not, is this taught elsewhere in the membership?

  Thanks and great to be here!
  Ana

  @ana-s Great question, that I’m at a loss to answer. I don’t recall there being a tutorial on TAC. But as you said, you can always Google tuning. The tunings are E A D G B E. The bottom string is the 1st string; Then 2nd, 3rd up to the 6th string at the top. The 1st string is the high E, while the 6th is the low E. The top tuning pegs loosen and tighten the 4th theough the 6th strings ( D, A, Low E). The bottim 3 control the 1st through the 3tf strings (High E, B, G).

  Using the Snark, you play the string until the arrows are centered.

    Hi Loraine! Thanks for your answer 😉 I’ll just get started on that then with google searching. And thank you for the extra information on the strings! 🤩 It helps a lot!
