Re: how to tune properly

why cant you use a guitar tuner? but the other way requires a good ear and you still have to get a starting pitch 440 is standard a if you can locate that on a piano you tune your fifth string A to that and press down the 6th string on the 5th fret and tune it to the fifth string press down on the 5th string 5th fret and tune the 4th string to it press down on the 4th string 5th fret and tune the 3rd string to it press down on the 3rd string 4thfret and tune the 2nd string to it press down on the 2nd string 5th fret and tune the 1st string to it BUY A TUNER!!!!!make your life easier,i dont even want to suggest harmonic tunning ive confused you enough
