What is Tuning
Tuning is a process performed on musical instruments to make them sound better. This process, done to produce notes as desired, is applied to all instruments from the bağlama to the guitar, from the cura to the violin. The main purpose of tuning is to ensure that the note is heard in the most beautiful and clearest way possible. For good music, the instrument's tuning must also be good. Tuning, specially done for sounds to come out as treble or bass, allows for better musical performance. Poorly done tuning, however, will be unpleasant as it will cause flat notes.
How to Tune a Guitar
First, press the 5th fret on the E string and make the lower open string produce the A note. Press the 5th fret on the A string, and the lower open string will produce the D note. Press the 5th fret on the D string, and tune the lower open string to the G string. Press the 4th fret on the G string and tune the lower open string to the B note. Tune the lower open string to the E note by pressing the 5th fret on the B string. Finally, check all the notes once more and tune them. This way, you will have tuned your guitar.
