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
th
between the 4 and 5
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
rd
between the 3 and 4
frets, to get the correct pitch for the 2B string.
