Come back tomorrow for your next challenge
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.
