Tune Up Your Guitar

Learn to play the guitar is never difficult especially if the beginner has a passion for guitars. A part of the learning process is learning how to tune the guitar. Tuning the guitar may seem very difficult when in fact it is not. We use this notation on guitar tuning:

String Note Frequency
1 e' 329.6 Hz
2 b 246.92 Hz
3 g 196.0 Hz
4 d 146.8 Hz
5 A 110 Hz
6 E 82.4 Hz



Here the steps for quick tuning :

1. Play the e' string with open string. The sound must match with the 5th fret of b string
2. Play the b string with open string. The sound must match with the 4th fret of g string
3. Play the g string with open string. The sound must match with the 5th fret of d string
4. Play the d string with open string. The sound must match with the 5th fret of
A string
5. Play the A string with open string. The sound must match with the 5th fret of
E string


e'|-------------------0---|
B |---------------0---5---|
G |-----------0---4-------|
D |-------0---5-----------|
A |---0---5---------------|
E |---5-------------------|


0 stand for open string, and number 4 and 5 are fret number.
This is the easiest method of tuning a guitar. There are also electric methods to tune a guitar, but this traditional method is the most efficient. Once a beginner is able to learn how to tune a guitar, learning to play it will never be that hard.

That was a standard tuning. is there any non standard tuning? We'll see.....
