How to Tune the Guitar to itself! (1 of 2)
There are a number of different ways you can tune the guitar:
1.) The guitar is standard as E A D G B E. So when you tune the guitar to itself, you ONLY need ONE note to be in tune in order to tune the other strings. If the B string is in tune, then simply tune the High E and all the other strings in reference to that string.
2.) There’s also the option of tuning to a piano (or keyboard, flute, etc. assuming they can all give you a note in tune)
3.) Use a tuner
4.) Its rare, but if you have perfect pitch, or relative pitch, then tune the guitar using your ears – nothing else needed! If you want to work on your ear training than simply use Hear and Play.com to work on your inner pitch!
The guitar is tuned in fourths. That means the distance from E to A is four notes (E F G A). So just understand that when you are tuning the guitar to itself you are tuning the strings in fourths (except B to high E – that’s an interval of a third)
