Tuning a Guitar - Standard tuning for 6 string guitar

[Shadebomber]

YES I LOVE THIS!! This is the best video that I found for tuning a guitar. I just love it, thanks for doing this video I had a lot of problems when it was about tuning the guitar. And thanks to you I finally could tune it easier. Even though I could tune it myself since it's easy I thought it was better with a video that could help me so I could tune it more exactly. Thank you!!!

[BigBagsForRent2]

Goddam I have the worst fucking ear in history. I had a pretty good tuned guitar but I thought it could use a tweek so I tried to tune it with this video now it's all fucked to shit. My sense of pitch sucks.

[supremebitchxxx]

thanks you saved my guitars life. xxx

[HarvestTexas]

Great! Now that you've learned standard tuning (boring), now try dropped D tuning (DADGBD) and play F****** Up by Neil Young... hyperrust dot o-r-g

[missbliss4life]

easy. thanks better than my electronic tuner.

[319monica]

This is an EPIC video for people who can tune by ear and stuff... plus it costs less than an electric tuner from a Musical Instrument store. I LOVE this tuner, I tuned by ear with this and my guitar is sounding much better now!

[MrOlympiakos40]

i cant tune the E(6th) the A and D i try and i try it again but nothing the G ,B AND E (1TH) its ok pff. help ...

[YoAlbertIceTea]

@PianoByEar1110 I have a feeling its flat, though, that's just a guess

[PianoByEar1110]

My 'G' string isn't tuning correctly? The sound of my 'G' string is totally off and won't tune to the correct sound for some reason? Any ideas?

[xoChaosTheoryox]

@PianoByEar1110 Might need new strings then

[MICKFAASA]

@PianoByEar1110 maybe your string is slipping or you have the wrong string on where the g string is suppose to be ?

[grumpster69]

I still can't get it!!

[missalisonhamiltonUK]

Best tuner on youtube by a mile, makes my guitar sound gorgeous =o)

[cheapguitarsshop]

@shellrob12

[Kitsune987]

U ROCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I just got a brand new guitar and I tuned it awesomley with this video

[cheapguitarsshop]

@Kitsune987

Good to hear that. A well tuned guitar hides all sorts of sins ;-)

[youtublng]

Better than the phone app -- Thanks!

[304nabin]

I'm very impressed much with this video, but i have one question that while tuning which fret should i use?

[cheapguitarsshop]

@304nabin

The tuning is for an open fret.

[MrLu4ever]

This video was very helpful because I just got my guitar yesterday for Christmas :D

[aceW3RM]

My G cant make a sound even close to that... whats wrong? Do I need to change my strings? I tried tightening it and no matter how tight it didnt make the sound even when loosening it... What should I do?

[EP2504]

@aceW3RM I have this problem, but with my top E string. If you figure out how to fix it, please let me know D:

[cheapguitarsshop]

@aceW3RM

Sometimes you can be almost an octave out, so if tightening the string isn't working, try loosening it.

[v1mp]

Thanks for this upload! adding to favorites!

[ihatenumbers987]

MY GUITAR HATES ME ESPECIALLY THE G STRING!!!!!!

But thanks a lot you really did help me! :)

[boppa1231]

thanks man this helped a lot! now my songs sound good not like clashing notes.

[origindirewolf]

i can tune by ear just by hearing each note once and i dont need to keep coming back to this vid :P

[Dezacled]

I'm scared, my strings might break from spinning the tuners

[MrEzee09]

I HAVE A PROB WITH MY E STRING :(

[TeechN9nee]

DUDE my freakin guitar just doesnt have that E sound you have -.-

[cheapguitarsshop]

@TeechN9nee

Time for a new set of strings perhaps. :-)

[MrFathermilk]

Unfortunately my son's little guitar only has 5 of the 6 strings on it at the moment, but your video was the first I cam across and it got the job done in no time! Thanks so much for posting, it was easy to follow and quick for anyone to do, even those who may not be musically inclined (like myself LOL)

[bloodyapple656]

I love it, thank u, that helps a lot.

[lamarhackett1234]

I love you. iv been trying to tune my guitar for a month now and my dad wont take me get a tuner and this was soooo much help

[cheapguitarsshop]

@lamarhackett1234

Glad to have helped. Certainly much cheaper than a tuner :-)

[neosan]

most useful video ever :)

[mrgenius4]

this is much better than all the other standard tuning videos ... it's kinda smooth notable ..

[Reikhardt]

@mrgenius4 If you are tuning the strings to the correct pitch (as in the notes on this video) you wont break the strings, they are designed to take this tension. You've got to overtune them quite a bit to get them to snap.

[RoberTastic]

how do you tune without breaking a string? it's just done by feel or is there a particular technique? Are the strings different for the higher pitched strings? Yeah im a noob starting from zer0

[cheapguitarsshop]

@RoberTastic

If you are tightening the strings so much that they feel like they are going to snap, it's most likely you've gone an octave over the correct tuning. Try winding down to see if you can get in tune.

[sixstringedthing]

@RoberTastic If you've just put fresh strings on your guitar, you need to be a bit gentle and let them stretch in a bit (the high strings more than the low ones). Don't try tuning the top strings up to pitch in one hit, get them to about 3/4 tension and let them sit for a couple of minutes before tuning them right up to the correct pitch.

[guitarknight10]

nice!

[JoshieSkate21]

thank you i love you:]<3

[robbanan]

Shit, my digital turner was low att battery, thats why it's shows B when it's A!

[Euph0ricacid]

bloody choice bro you helped tune my guitar the first time. my kuz always intentionally put my gat out of tune, i fucking despise peoplle who do that. theres too many of them right?!

[cheapguitarsshop]

@Euph0ricacid

Glad to hear you could finally tune your guitar.

Personal tip, don't lend your guitar out to anyone; even if they are a guitar legend.

[antojikalathinkal]

[Djolivas18]

This helped thanks

[cheapguitarsshop]

@Djolivas18

I'm pleased you found it useful.

[darkdevil905]

@cheapguitarsshop HELL YEAH THANKS MATE !!!!

[Crusader51493]

@cheapguitarsshop i was told that there was a trick to tuning, where you just tune the low e and then hold the 3 frett 6th string and match the 5th to that, same frett for 5th to 4th, 4th and 3rd, and 4th frett 3rd to second, and again 3rd frett for second and first. It worked at first and maybe i just need to excercise my ears but could you check it out so i know if it's just me or not? And thanks.

[VictorDB97]

Have you ever heard about MIDI tuners?

[cheapguitarsshop]

@VictorDB97

MIDI tuners have been around for a while and can be useful.

We have a online guitar and bass guitar tuner on our website.

[0011000100110011ish]

@VictorDB97 HAVE YOU EVER HEARD ABOUT BADASSERY BACON BALLING BIG BLOCKS BECAUSE BADASSES BOTHER?

[MurderousPandas]

I like this one the best, the other ones i found were off a bit and usually had a bit of another sound mixed in, i think one was using distortion which didn't help at all. Anyways, i'd download this if you could maybe add voice saying which note was being played next so i can prepare myself for the next string.

[cheapguitarsshop]

@MurderousPandas

Good idea about saying which note is being played. I'll put up a new version of the tuning video soon.
