Hi all.

I'm 100% sure this question has been asked here before, but I couldn't find any of the threads.

My question is: "What is the best way of tuning your guitar half a step down?"
I've read a few ways on internet using a capo and stuff, but I'd like to know what u guys think here at trusted GFB&B.

I reckon the best thing to do is use a chromatic tuner. ie one that displays and tunes to all 12 notes.

You can also tune your A string to the same note as the E string 4th fret ( giving you Ab ) and then use this as a reference for the other 5 strings.

I use a tuner, but when doing it by ear I tune the top E to the Eb on the A string at 6th fret, then tune normally.

Always remember to tune below the note and up to it. Tuning down to a note never holds.

Yeah, same here.
