how do you tune a guitar without any tuning tools?
I know there is a way to do it by strumming 2 strings at a time. Can someone please refresh my memory. thanks.
To tune to yourself, hold down the low E at the 5th fret. Play it, and then play the open A string. They should be the same pitch. If you hear waves or it sounds bad, adjust the higher string until they line up.
Repeat this, holding the 5th fret of the A string and tuning the open D string, then the 5th of the D and the open G.
To tune the B string, hold the *4th* fret of the G string and tune the open B.
Then tune the 5th fret of B and open high E.
