What key should electronic tuner be in to tune acoustic guitar?

elusive_xo

I am tuning my new acoustic.
The electronic tuner is asking for the note as well as the key i am tuning in..
what do i select for key?

Answer
That's kind of weird that it asks for the key but just put the key of C major, because all of the open strings are in that key. Save up for a good chromatic tuner. If your acoustic has an input on it you can get the Korg Pitchblack, a great tuner. If not, tune to a piano or pitch pipe

How to tune Acoustic Guitar?

Q. Years ago my parents got me the guitar because I asked for it and it ended up in the closet and I played Violin, now I want to actually learn to play it a bit. I am trying tuning applications and videos for the guitar but the notes seem too low when the string feels a little too stretched (maybe just opinion from playing violin). Can someone help me with this? I don't want to have asked for this without at least learning it. Thank you.
(Played Violin 4-5 years in school, feel free to relate anything of the Guitar to Violin if you have a tip)
Ill also add that it is a "First Act - Player Series" All Wood Acoustic Guitar
