    • Rotate the tuning peg counterclockwise until the string is slightly taut, but not tight.

    • Repeat steps 3-10 for each string.

    • Each string will progressively get closer to the knobs. It is not essential to progress from thick to thin strings, but it is important that they are connected to the proper string tree.

    • Caution: Do not over tighten the strings. This can cause the strings to snap and could cause bodily injury. The strings are too tight when you have difficulty turning the tuning peg.

    • Tighten the string until it is close to the proper tuning. Use an electronic tuner or an online tuner that uses your computer's microphone. (Google: Online Tuner)

    • Note: Clockwise rotation of the tuning peg tightens the string and produces a higher pitch. Counter-clockwise rotation loosens the string causing a lower pitch.

    • Tune the thickest string to B, the second thickest string E, the next thickest to A, the next string to D, and the last string to G.

    • Check the intonation of each of your strings by playing the 12th fret and 24th fret.

    • In the pictures, we can see that on the G string the 12th is slightly flat (as the red light to the left of the green light is illuminated) and the 24th fret is slightly sharp (as the red light to the right of the green light is illuminated)

    • Locate the corresponding Phillips head screw we will use to change the position of the bridge.

    • Our G string was slightly sharp at high notes, therefore we will unscrew the screw in order to make the string longer.

    • If the string is sharp at high notes, loosen the screw, making the string longer.If the string is flat at high notes, tighten the screw, making the string shorter.

    • Re-tune the string, and then recheck the pitch of the 12th and 24th fret. Note how only the green light is illuminated, indicating that the pitch is now a G.

    • If the 12th and 24th fret are not in tune, repeat step 5 until they are in tune.

    • If the 12th and 24th fret are in tune, repeat steps 3 through 5 for each of your strings until each string is intonated.
