    Strings on a Tele

    Guitar Lesson vs Learning From Book

    Hi All, I'm considering taking some lessons from a local teacher. I think I'm a fairly competent strummer but nothing special and it takes me a while to learn new stuff so I'm thinking of taking some lessons but they're a tad expensive. Has anyone ever found a decent 'learning system' (aka A...

    Recommend a tuner?

    Hi Guys, Can anyone recommend a tuner that shows more than the standard EADGBE tuning? I know I can tune the 1st fret to this tuning to that the guitar is tuned down half a step but I'd like a tuner that allowed me to do that with an open string. Any ideas? Thanks Spence
