billee Posted December 13, 2007 Share Posted December 13, 2007 Never heard of relative tuning? Fret the bottom E sting at the 5th fret - that is what your A string should sound like....and so on. I don't own an electric tuner - I have a reference mp3 which gives an E, thats all you need. Tuners are handy but not essential. BTW - the first chord in Stairway is an A-minor Yeah...if your E is already in tune...if it's not, tuning the rest of your strings to that isn't going to do you any good. I was talking about how if I don't have a tuner handy (or a reference mp3 to give me an E) I'll play the first note of Stairway (an A) and if it doesn't sound right I'll know where it should be since the song is so familiar to me, then I'll tune it up to the note that's in my head. Then I'll tune the rest to that. Just using that as an example of how, for example, when that song started I knew right away that the key was changed.

Hotplant Posted December 14, 2007 Share Posted December 14, 2007 (edited) See how Zep has touched lives... I know of few kids who do not want to learn Stairway as soon as they get a guitar! Edited December 14, 2007 by Hotplant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
