I f you take a empty 250ml coke bottle and fill it with tap water just up to the bottom of the O in coke and tap it with a tablespoon,the pitch of the note is nothing like any note on the guitar!!

[Andur4s]

guitare sounds horrible...

[derkman127]

press really hard lol

[afgbballplaya96]

wait will this work if all my strings r out of tune?

[xnolanx0]

hahahaha what the fuck? tune them shit why would you not have them tuned lol

[TheAmericanWhimp]

@afgbballplaya96 No. Your E-String(6) will have to be in tune and just go from there. This is a really bad way to tune your guitar though. Buy a Guitar/Bass Tuner to stay safe.

im having trouble just tuning the d string.. :/

[desert22eagle22]

i don't think this would work if all your strings are out of tune.

[afgbballplaya96]

yea same here and thats why im so confused!

[marshajt7634]

thank you~!!

[imadey0utube]

how does both E strings sound the same when its low and high?

[vengeance76]

i guess that's because both on same key , same fret

[jasonmildward]

[niihility]

It's very helpful to me.Your sound is clear.

[casemister1995]

but what if the E is out of tune you've fucked the whole thing up???

[tomascasals]

actually you have to learn the sound of the E string so you can tune it all; if not; then use a tuner or you really are fucked up xD

[athenareich]

Heya! This is Athena Reich - the girl in the video! Subscribe to my channel! Google me! To tune the E - use a pitch pipe or piano or tuner. Or, if you are in a bind, it's OK if you just tune it to itself and you are slightly off. Not recommended to do often, of course - but we've all done :)

[stacipoitra]

Then wouldn't you just be able to tune the whole guitar with the tuner?

[treehamallama]

actually this helped alot!

[treehamallama]

you should make the sound and i can hear it from the video??

[latheworks]

Right.... but how do you tune the E???

[Teganor]

That's what everyone keeps missing. So what, all low E strings are perfect?

[Luis0J]

i think for that you just have to recognize the E note by ear

[niihility]

Just find a video to listen.
