Tuning the Guitar
When the Tuner is turned on, sounds input to the GT-8 are
output directly as is (bypassed), and the tuner is activated.
Under these conditions you can then tune your guitar.

About the Display During Tuning
With the GT-8’s internal tuner, the note name is indicated in
the upper row of the display and the Tuning Guide is shown
in the lower row, indicating the difference between the input
sound and the sound in the display.

When the difference from the correct pitch falls within 50
cents, the Tuning Guide then indicates the size of that
difference. As you watch the Tuning Guide, tune the guitar
so that the “

How to Tune

Play a single open note on the string being tuned.
The name of the note closest to the pitch of the string that
was played appears in the display.
* Only play a single note on the one string being tuned.
2.
Tune the string until the string name appears in the
display.
3.
As you watch the Tuning Guide, adjust the guitar’s
tuning until “
■
” appears in the center.
4.
Repeat Steps 1–3 until all of the strings are tuned.
* When tuning guitars equipped with a tremolo bar, when one

then tune the other strings again, repeatedly fine-tuning each
string.
