How to Tune Your Guitar (Without Wasting Time)

If your guitar is out of tune, your chords will sound off, your riffs won't hit right, and even your best playing can sound bad. The good news? Tuning your guitar only takes a minute or two.

This guide will show you exactly how to tune all six strings using our free online guitar tuner and video tutorial. No apps, downloads, or extra gear needed—just your guitar and your device's microphone.

Standard Guitar Tuning

Every guitarist should know this:

E A D G B E

That's the tuning for all six strings, starting with the thickest string and ending with the thinnest.

Think of it like this:

  • 6th String = Low E

  • 5th String = A

  • 4th String = D

  • 3rd String = G

  • 2nd String = B

  • 1st String = High E

Whether you're learning your first song, practicing with friends, recording, or getting ready to perform, keeping your guitar in tune makes everything sound better.

What You'll Learn

  • How to tune all 6 guitar strings

  • The correct notes for standard tuning (E A D G B E)

  • How to use an online guitar tuner

  • How to recognize each string by name

  • Simple tricks for tuning faster

  • Common mistakes beginners make

Step-by-Step: Tune Your Guitar

Step 1: Tune the Low E String

Start with the thickest string on your guitar.

Play the string and watch the tuner. Turn the tuning peg slowly until the tuner shows E and the indicator is centered.

Don't rush it. Small adjustments work best.

Step 2: Tune the A String

Move to the next string.

Play the string and adjust the tuning peg until the tuner shows A.

If you go past the note, back up and try again with smaller turns.

Step 3: Tune the D String

The fourth string should be tuned to D.

Play the string clearly and adjust until the tuner locks onto the correct note.

A properly tuned D string helps your chords sound fuller and cleaner.

Step 4: Tune the G String

Now tune the third string to G.

The G string gets used a lot in both chords and solos, so make sure it's accurate.

Turn the peg slowly and wait for the tuner reading to settle.

Step 5: Tune the B String

Next is the B string.

Because it's a higher-pitched string, even tiny adjustments can make a big difference.

Stop when the tuner shows a perfect B.

Step 6: Tune the High E String

Finish with the thinnest string.

Tune it to High E and then play all six strings from low to high.

Quickly recheck everything to make sure no strings shifted while tuning.
