The instructions are very detailed. I learned how to fine-tune my guitar thanks to your article.
This is a great visual guide for tuning! Really helpful for beginners like me who are just starting out with guitar. Thanks for the clear instructions!
The chords sound great when they are tuned well.
Love the Snark tuner. I have a Korg PitchCrow too, but display is smaller and more difficult to read in bright light conditions.

I do know how to tune in open tuning. I am interested in learning some create tuning. I have read the how to tune in guitar books etc.
back before elect tuners I would all most always brake the high E or B lol
If you’re finding it hard to remember the string names, use a mnemonic such as:
(from low E to high E)
Elephants
And
Dinosaurs
Grow
Beards
Easily
or
Elephants
And
Dogs
Got
Big
Ears
Or the classic: Eat A Darn Good Breakfast Everyday 🙂
I use Eddie Ate Dynamite Good Bye Eddie
Figured I’d know this stuff … Relative tuning? I’ve been doing it wrong!!!
Glad i got that sorted out.
Thanks Tony ..
Good tuning is so important make the chords sound great
One thing you don´t mention that i have learned from tuning is. When tuning a guitar go from a flat note and up, never tune from a sharp and down. If the nut is tight it might hold the string back and when you start strumming the guitar is out of tune again 🙂
Good suggestion, I’ll have to start doing that.
