How to Tune a Guitar Harmonically
This guitar-tuning method makes use of the Concert "A" note, which is also used to tune all other stringed instruments. It is more accurate (since the tuning notes are not fretted) and easier, once learned.
- Play a harmonic note at the 5th position of the 5th string. As the harmonic "rings", tune this string to the Concert "A" note. Once in tune, proceed to Step 2.
- Play the 7th position harmonic on the 5th string. This is the "E" note and should match the 6th string harmonic on the 5th position. (Note: This harmonic is also used to tune the open 1st string, which is also the "E" note.)
- Tune the 6th string next, where the 7th position is the "B" note. This is the same as the open 2nd string.
- Play next the "A" note harmonic on the 5th string in the 5th position (step 1) again. This is the same note as the 4th string in the 7th position.
- Play the harmonic on the 5th position of the the 4th string, which is the same as the 7th position harmonic of the 3rd string. This is the final step.
- Play a harmonic note at the 5th position of the 5th string. As the harmonic "rings", tune this string to the Concert "A" note. Once in tune, proceed to Step 2.
- Play the 7th position harmonic on the 5th string. This is the "E" note and should match the 6th string harmonic on the 5th position. (Note: This harmonic is also used to tune the open 1st string, which is also the "E" note.)
- Tune the 6th string next, where the 7th position is the "B" note. This is the same as the open 2nd string.
- Play next the "A" note harmonic on the 5th string in the 5th position (step 1) again. This is the same note as the 4th string in the 7th position.
- Play the harmonic on the 5th position of the the 4th string, which is the same as the 7th position harmonic of the 3rd string. This is the final step.
