How to Manually Tune your Electric Guitar

Video Transcript

Hi! My name is Mike Larney from the band Naked Underneath, and on behalf of Expert Village I am going to show how to tune with yourself on electric guitar. The first thing is to recognize that you could be in tune with yourself and not in tune with others. So let us just focus on being in tune with ourselves. If on the fifth fret of the first string, say E string, that note is an A and it corresponds to an open on the second, which is also an A, so now if this is lower, I am going to bring that up by turning the tuning head to be the same pitch, same thing goes with A to D, same thing from D to G, and there is, one monkey wrench in here is that, on the B string you have to do the fourth fret on the G string is similar to the B string, and then also, we move back up to the 5 fret on the B string to give ourselves an A; and that’ll get us in tune to ourselves.
