Help Im having difficulty tuning my guitar with a tuner ?

I do not use a tuner to tune my guitar, so I can't really help you with that. But I will say that you're tuner is probably what's out of tune based on what you've said. (I could be wrong though, so hopefully someone else who's used a tuner can give more valuable insight on that.) I, personally, use an online tuner at http://www.howtotuneaguitar.org, which also provides step by step information and allows you to determine what kind of guitar you're tuning and adjusts accordingly. (The default is acoustic.)

My tuner however works perfectly for me. Maybe ur tuner has a problem or the guittar pick up has a problem. Either o f whcih you can tune ur guitar through your ears just by listening to a note, a standard note like a keyboard in which you can compare the notes on your guitar.

If you have a piano or other instrument that you can test your tuner against, try it. Also, here's a link to a website, play the strings on the website and make sure your tuner works properly. http://www.freeguitartuner.co.uk/ Also, if you are tuning through a microphone, make sure the room is quiet. Sometimes extraneous noises throw tuners off. The best way to tune a guitar is by ear, but it takes a while to get to know the strings well enough to do this. Good luck and happy jammming!

At this point, find someone who is familiar with tuning guitars, and show you physically, because I can't help you from here, what you are saying is not making any sense. I tune by ear, and by tuner, but unless I am there I can't help you!

Some guitar tuners are designed to tune bass guitars too. You have to make sure you are in the "guitar" mode. Also if you are unfamiliar with tuning,be sure you are set at "440" and not in a tuner setting which is flat or sharp. If this is a guitar with new strings you may have to repeat the tuning process three or four times until the strings remain in tune. If the guitar still continues to go out of tune too frequently, the strings may not have been strung properly or you may have faulty machine heads. The important thing with tuning is to tune slowly, to avoid breaking strings. Good luck!

Well, it helps to just listen to how the chords sound. And if you just picked up how to play then it is really hard to catch on. I just say listen to how all the chords blend together and sound good together. And you'll know when a string is out of tune because it won't sound good. And when I tune I listen to the way the strings vibrate. The sounds will go in and out, to me that me it's out of tune. When the notes aline and are in tune the strings (I'm talking about the sound) will not go in and out, but will be level. It'll won't be shakey, if you tune your guitar to false harmonics you'll know what I'm talkin' bout. It's also good to compare your tuner to a keyboard to see if it's on point. Because sometimes tuners can be off pitch, too. Hope this helped you and good luck!!
