Use this diagram to make a quick check to be sure your guitar has all strings in tune.  The fattest string is the lowest note, an E,        Hear the "E"  (Windows Media Audio.wma  format )   The fifth note on the E-string is an A.   Hold the E-string down at the fifth fret, pluck the string and compare to the open A-string. They should be the same. If not, tune the A-string until they are the same. Hear the "A"   Then tune the D-string to the fifth fret of the A-string, Hear the "D"   then tune the G-string to the fifth fret of the D-string; Hear the "G"   then, this one is different, tune the B-string to the fourth note on the G-string, not the fifth; Hear the "B"   and finally tune the high E-string to the fifth fret of the B-string. Hear the high "E"
