Did you know there's a tuner here on the forum? It's in the top right hand corner of the page.
Click on Online Guitar Tuner, then on the green buttons.
Or click on this link;

Hi There !!!
Hope you're doin fine  . I really liked your guitar, its very pretty  . I would suggest you to always stay in tune, as Geoff had mentioned, you can use the online tuner, whenever you're out of tune, or ask someone to do it.
Anyways thanks for letting us see your Guitar, Take care.
Kindest Regards and Care

Tuning is hard for me. I don't think that I hear the tones right. I thought I had it tuned good but it was off. That's what made it so hard to play. My son has an electronic tuner and it works pretty good and I don't even have to hear it. When you get older hearing isn't as good. Ugh! Thank-you for the nice comments.

I have the same problem. I can never tune a guitar in a shop without my tuner.  I would suggest that you get one of these http://www.musiciansfriend.com/produ...ies?sku=211052
Best $30 you will spend.
Either that or get yourself a guitar with a built in tuner - one of the selling points for me when I got my Takamine

yonkle:
Eons ago when I was in college and switched from banjo to guitar (in fact, even with the banjo) I would get it perfect and one of my friends would always complain about my being sharp or flat here and there. I tuned myself silly and one of them would always have to finish it off.
A nice, inexpensive tuner purchased several years ago has been my lifesaver. Of course, the odd thing is, now that I am older and have worked with my guitars more I seem to hear the tuning better than when I was younger.
I agree with bluesguy, get a tuner, you'll love it and in time I think you will find you can hear it better by ear every day.
