lots of people like my g-string lol xDDD

[TuMira85]

if you are using a tuner, you must hit the strings rapidly as you are tuning, because the natural decay of the string will cause your tuner to think the string is flat. make sure each string is in tune right when it is plucked, not seconds after. You must also make sure the guitar is in tune with itself- that the low e string is enharmonic to the 2nd fret 4th string note of E. That's about it. Think about it carefully.

you need to CHUNE the guitar, it needs to be CHUNED up... I love your accent, man. <3

[jesusmetal92107]

forgive my noobness, but would using an electronic tuner work using an electric guitar? would you use it (the tuner) when the guitar is plugged into an amp?

[LaggerEntertainment]

Shouldn't you tell about the sound vibration thing when tuning using the fifth fret method?

[zack425back425]

[wayneski1290]

@ZebraDog7 you just tune the guitar to itself so it is in tune to itself but not in tune in the world... atleast you'll sound good.

[ickayR]
