Here is a slightly more involved tuning. Use the UP & DOWN buttons on the front panel to select 1: Guitar Stan-

dard in the TUNINGS WINDOW.

Step 1 - Tune your guitar to standard A440 tuning (it is 1:Guitar Standard) in the TUNINGS WINDOW.

Step 2 - Us the “UP” button to select (3: Guitar 1/2 Step Down) in the TUNINGS WINDOW.

You will notice that the all notes have a () - DOWN ARROW - next to it. This means you should tune

all of your strings down to these notes.

6th string (lowest string) E down to D#

5th string (next higher string) A down to G#

4th string (next higher string) D down to C#

3rd string (next higher string) G down to F#

2nd string (next higher string) B down to A#
