After familiarizing ourselves with the parts of a guitar, of course, in order to create a decent sound, we must learn next the basics of tuning the guitar. If it happens that you have the resources to own a tuner, then it would be an easy task for you to tune your guitar. First, if there is a cord socket into the side or rib of your acoustic guitar, you may connect the cord to the tuner to be able to tune every string of the guitar. Stroke each strings one by one. A tuned string should indicate a green or yellow light into the tuner. If it happens to show a red light, tighten or loosen the strings to achieve the perfect tune. For those who do not have a tuner but owns a piano or keyboard, the best thing to do is to follow the equivalent tuning. Every string of your guitar starting with the thinnest to thickest are named E, A, D, G, B and E. The names corresponds the note of an open string. The 1st, 2nd and 3rd strings are what we called treble strings. On the other hand, the 4th, 5th and 6th strings are what we called, the bass strings. Knowing this, through equivalent tuning, we are to match the keys of the piano to the open string of the guitar. The 6th string E, which is the thickest, should be the lower note E of the major scale interval in the piano. Continue until you match all the corresponding open strings to their equivalent keys in the piano. If it happens that you are not fortunate enough to own a tuner nor a piano, do not lose hope as there is a way for you to still tune your guitar without using any other gadgets or instruments, only your ears. This method of tuning is what we called, relative tuning. If the top or the 6th (thickest) string of your guitar is already tuned to an E, put your finger on its 5th fret and match it with an open 5th string. Next is to place your finger on the 5th fret of the 5th string, match it with the open 4th string. Do the same thing to tune the 3rd string. After tuning the 3rd string, put your finger on its 4th fret and match it with the 2nd string. And lastly, place your finger on the 5th fret of the 2nd string to tune the 1st or the thinnest string until it matches. You can talk about...
