Fender FT-004 Tuner- Detailed Tutorial for Beginners 

Thank you. This is a true public service. Makes the world a better place.

thank you! the way you explained this made it much easier for me to use a tuner, Eat, All, Day, Get, Big ,Easy. that's how I learned all the strings

*wipes tear for eye* thank you again, technology

By pressing the button, you can toggle to differnt letters, ie, G for guitar , V for violin, B for bass, C for chromatic. When it says G, it will help you tune to the 6 strings of the guitar. As long as you are with in a note or two of say the 6th string E, it will indicate if you are flat (string too loose and need to tighten)by showing a line near the top LEFT. If sharp (string too loose and need to loosen), a line will be near the top RIGHT. Review the video or ask a musician for help.

When I started playing I would have sold my guitar for a tutorial like this! Many thanks. Way to get back to the basics. Every great guitarist learned this exact lesson. Thanks kidsghitar3.

Great explanation! I picked up this tuner for $8 from Amazon and tuned my guitar in under 5 minutes thanks to your video.

Dude....simple.....yet....straight to the point....THANK YOU VERY MUCH!!!!!

Tutorial is clear and perfect for beginners. My 12 and 14 year old grand children also found this tutorial easy to follow.

Most excellent tuning guide for absolute beginners. Thank you!

Nice job of explaining how to use a chromatic tuner , JMHO but one VERY important error even advanced players make is if you turn your tuning key too far and the string is too tight or the pitch too high ( same thing) NEVER just loosen it down, you must loosen it down BELOW the desired setting and always TUNE UP to the correct setting, if you overshoot it then loosen it again and then tighten it up to the correct setting, you may ask why ? there are dozens of technical reasons but this holds true on a $50 or a $5,000 guitar, remember always tune UP to the correct setting, if you just tune it down it will slip more within 5 minutes or less and you'll be out of tune again. This applies to all Acoustic and most Electric guitars, I'm sure somebody here can explain this better than me :) It took me 2-3 years of hard playing drinking and hair pulling before it dawned on me.OK I know there are shredder type guitars with lockable tuners nuts and Floyd Rose type bridges that will stay in tune even if you hit your drummer upside the head with it after every song :) but for %99 of us the above advice is a must.

You're awesome and thank you much as i've just purchased my first guitar and was totally lost on even knowing how to tune it with the FT-004. Thanks again.

Hello from Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 Thanks so much... I didn't have instructions with my tuner, just a small leaflet which didn't really go into detail You just stopped me from sounding like a constipated cat

Thank you so much, I bought a guitar and I don't how to use a tuner, you explained everything
