How to tune your guitar

Unfortunately, before you begin playing, you'll really need to tune your guitar. The problem is, it is, at first, a relatively difficult task, one that becomes much easier over time. If you know of anyone who plays guitar, who could do the job for you, it is advised that you get them to tune your instrument. Alternately, you could invest in a "guitar tuner", a relatively inexpensive device which listens to the sound of each string, and advises you (via a few blinking lights) on what you need to do in order to get the note in tune.

i once found a digital guitar tuner on internet. this sofgtware costs nothing and you can tune your guitar nearly perfect by just using ordinary mic.

there are also some other ways to tune your guitar by using your hearing abilities. But it is going to take time to develop them.

here is the way to do so..

1. Get you 1st string the thickest (E) tuned by some reference source. that might be a tuner. now don't let this string ever untuned as this is going to help you tune other strings.
2. Play the sixth string, fifth fret (A), then tune your open fifth string (A) until it they sound the same.
3. Play the fifth string, fifth fret (D), then tune your open fourth string (D) until they sound the same.
4. Play the fourth string, fifth fret (G), then tune your open third string (G) until they sound the same.
5. Play the third string, fourth fret (B), then tune your open second string (B) until they sound the same.
6. Play the second string, fifth fret (E), then tune your open first string (E) until they sound the same.
