Step 1
: Use the pitch pipe, starting with 6E,
match the pitch with the 6E string. To adjust
the string pitch, simply turn the Corresponding
key on the headstock. (See the
Pitch-Pipe
Configuration
diagram above)
Follow this same procedure to tune all the
strings on your guitar.
Step 2
: After tuning your guitar using the pitch
pipe, you may want to use this optional second
method to fine-tune your guitar, ensuring that
the strings are in tune with each other.
To do this, start by tuning the 5A string to the
6E string by pressing down on the 6E string in
between the 4
th
and 5
th
frets. This will give you
the correct pitch of the 5A string. You can then
rotate the 5A key on the headstock until the
strings sound the same.
From there you can use the same method to
tune the other strings with the exception to
tuning the B2 string. Press down on the 3G
string in between the 3
rd
and 4
th
, instead of the
4
th
and 5
th
frets, to get the correct pitch for the
2B string. (See the
Tuning Your Guitar
diagram above)
