How to tune a guitar


Congratulations! You have chosen to learn the coolest instrument on earth! Maybe you are a beginner, maybe you have been playing for sometime, either way I welcome you because there is plenty of content for you to enjoy in this eCourse. Every few days you will receive a new segment, and in each segment I will focus on teaching you different guitar techniques. I've worked very hard to make these lessons straight forward, enjoyable and effective for your learning.. It doesn't matter weather you play acoustic, electric, blues or rock, the techniques you'll learn in this course are fundamentally important. Whatever, reason you have chosen to play guitar, weather you want to be in a band, or if you want to record an album, or if you want to entertain your friends, or if you are looking for a way to relax, these vGuitar Lessons are designed to guide you, teach you and support you in everything you need to know. Imagine in 3 months from now, you will be looking back on this very first e-lesson, and realising that it was the start of an incredible journey. A journey in which you learned to play many many songs and became an awesome guitarist. You will feel surprised at how much you have learned so quickly. It's like when you are a little child, everyday you look in the mirror but you don't notice yourself growing, then at Christmas your relations are amazed at how much you've grown. It's the same with learning guitar. So don't be surprised to find yourself on stage one day, rocking out to hundreds of screaming fans as result of this decision you made to learn guitar here today. Our outcome is to learn and have fun. We will only learn cool stuff that you can play straight away. Isn't that neat! Is that a deal? Are you excited? ,,,, , Good! Ok! First things first. We need to learn how to tune the Guitar! If you want to play songs, you have to be in-tune! This first mini-video-guitar-lesson is going to teach you how to do this. I've seen many guitarists get up on stage at a gig, without taking the time to tune their guitar properly. The result is a cringe-worthy performance which only succeeds in clearing the room! So we are going get it right from the start, then everything you play will sound as it should. :-) There are many ways to tune the guitar. Most of the time I tune by ear (I will show you how to do this). However, when I do gigs I like to use an electric tuner for accuracy. Once you have learned how to tune, we can then start learning songs, and everything starts to get fun from there on in! It's possible that you already know how to tune. If so, I encourage you to watch the mini-video-guitar-lesson anyway, because you may pick up some helpful ideas. Remember this eCourse is designed for beginner guitarists, but each new segment focuses on different techniques so there is plenty for you to learn which will challenge your playing ability.
