How to tune a 6 or 12 string electric guitar

The absolute easiest way to tune an electric guitar is with an inexpensive electronic tuner. Coincidentally we just happen to sell theworlds best selling guitar tunerin our okay store for well under $20.00 including delivery, batteries and one year warranty!
For a vast majority of guitar players the Korg GA-30 guitar tuneris the only guitar tuner you will ever need. To use just plug the cord that normally goes from your guitar to your amp directly into the Korg GA-30 guitar tuner. Press the button to select the name of the note you want to tune and use the LED lights andmovingneedle displayto dial in the string tension.
To properly tune a guitar it is important to tune to the target note in a sharp direction. That is if your target note is "A" and when you pluck your string you notice that it is sharper than your target "A" then turn the tuning peg to a pitch flatter than "A" and slowly tune up to "A" if you pass "A" then repeat the process. Always tune up to the desired note.
If you also have an acoustic guitar in your collection the Korg GA-30 guitar tunereven has a built in microphone to accurately tune your 6 or 12 string acoustic guitar.
The correct notes for your6 or 12 string guitarare (starting from the bottom string, the one closest to the floor when you are playing) E, B, G, D, A and E. Thelast E is an octave lower then the first E. For 12 strings guitars use EE, BB, Gg, Dd, Aa and Ee where the lower case notes are an octave higher the the upper case notes.
