Sat800 Seika - name of the tuner.
But i just don't get it. I try to tune the strings but the light never is green (which means it is tuned) it keeps staying red. Any advice?
Answer
Hello there,
I have not used that tuner, but I did check it out on-line. It can be used for an acoustic. The lights should indicate whether the pitch is sharp (too high) or flat (too low). Lets say you are tuning the low E string and the red light shows you the pitch is flat. Turn the tuning peg to tighten the string and raise the pitch. Check it again with the tuner. And repeat until you get the green light. Now that you have one string tuned to the correct pitch you can use that string to help you get the next string close to correct. Fret the low E string at the 5th fret. That is A. Then tune the next string, that pitch. Now the A string is close. Use the tuner to dial the pitch in exact. Then repeat the process for the next string. Fret the A string at the 5th fret and that is D. Tune the next string in close and use the tuner to get it exact. Then move to the next string. Fret the D string at the 5th fret and that is G. Tune the next string in to that pitch and then get it exact with the tuner. For the next string, fret the G string at the 4th fret that is B. Tune the next string in close to that pitch and fine tune it with the tuner. For the last string, fret the B string at the 5th fret. That is E. Tune the last string to the pitch and fine tune it with the tuner.
You can start with any string you can get tuned in with the tuner. Then move across the neck either direction by tuning to the adjacent string as I described above.

guitar tuners?
Miss Aweso
how much would a nice guitar tuner cost?
Answer
The good news is a "nice" guitar tuner can be had for a song. A tuner can range anywhere from $20 to $120 but there are many really, really good professional tuners available for as little as $30. Here are a few recommendations.
Korg has a number of tuners in various price ranges. We like the GA40 ($30). It is ultra compact and can be used with electric, acoustic and bass guitars.
Planet Waves also has a numer of fine tuners inlcuding their "working man's" Chromatic Tuner ($29.99) and their nifty Chromatic Pedal Tuner ($129.99), which is a rugged, roadworthy floor pedal that will allow you stay in tune while playing with your band.
Other companies with super-reliable tuners in a multitude of price ranges include Sabine, Boss and Peterson.
Truth is, most tuners work pretty good these days. I'd advise you to go to your local music store, tell 'em how much you want to spend and let them demo a couple options for you and see which one you like best.
