tuning the guitar


A standard tuning lesson ,



A standard tuning lesson ,
remember to tune the string up to the right note .
anyone can use a tuner ,but I think it's best if you can tune one string from an outside sourfce (tuner ,whisle etc') and tune the rest by ear ,this will give you a good ear training and a better feel for the guitar.
There are quite a few other types of tunings like "Drop D" ,"open G"which will be shown on other posts. Don't own a tuner yet ? Use one or both of these tools :
1 An online tuner http://www.8notes.com/guitar_tuner/
2.A shareware tuner to install on your computer ,all you need is a microphone ... try it out http://www.aptuner.com/cgi-bin/aptuner/apmain.html Machine requirements for running AP Tuner: Pentium compatible CPU, 200 MHz or greater Windows 98, Windows 2000, Windows ME, or Windows XP 32 megabytes RAM 2 megabytes of available disk space for installation Sound card Microphone (or adapter if connecting directly to electric instrument)
