3 Easy Methods To Tune Your Guitar

Now let's dive into the tut..

We have 7 notes in music which are A B C D E F G ..... d r m f s l t  respectively they are the same thing A means d,B means r  while C means what? m! D means f, E means s, F means l ,G means t.. You got it right and so on now count it they are how many?Seven!Yea those are the seven major scale in music..Any Music,Any instrument contains this... Without all these notes there won't be what you listening to as music today.

Now let's move on,You will notice you see they are seven i.e d r m f s l t yes they are seven but if you want to complete the scale we have to make it eight d r m f s l t d  which is called octave which is high pitch.

Now let's play this major scale on our guitar...
Do you know your Frets? Yes that gap on your fretboard Now by now I assume your guitar must be tune if not check how to tune any guitar here easy..

Now let's move to c note on our guitar to play c major scale it means we on key c i.e making our c as d.. Now let me show you how to move to Key c on your guitar..

From headstock that is from the neck of your guitar and your third string count five gap towards the body and when you reach the five gap stop press and play it..Gbam! That's your d which is our C Note(C D E F G A B C) i.e your C as d, your D as r,your E as m,your F as f,your G as s,your A as l,your B as t and your C as d again.

Now let's move to r, But wait! Before we do that let me quickly show you something in music we have what we called Tone and Semitone now let me explain them one by one..

TONE: when you jump a gap(fret) from one note to another e.g jumping a gap from d | | r that is Tone.

SEMITONE:When you don't have to jump any gap,you just move your hand to another gap e.g m to f.

 Now let's move to r you move a tone from d to r i.e you jump a gap from d to r,now let's play m to play m move to second strings of your guitar and play the 5th fret i.e the one under the d that we just played in the 3rd string, then to play f you move semitone that is you don't have to jump any gap and to play s you have to move a tone that is you have to move a gap from f to s and to play l leave the 2nd string and move to 1st string play the 5th fret too that is the one under the m that we just played in 2nd string and to play t jump a gap from l to t and to play d move a semitone i.e don't jump any gap just move your hand to the fret beside it.
