ABSTRACT:
A method for tuning a fretted string instrument such, for example, as a guitar, by the use of a tuning fork of predetermined pitch by positioning a vibrating tuning fork on the string to be tuned and then adjusting the tension of the string until the vibrating tuning fork causes an audible sympathetic resonance of the string when the tuning fork is at a position where the pitch of the tuning fork and pitch of the string (as determined by the fret scale of the instrument) coincide.
