How offend should a guitar be tuned.?

A guitar needs to be tuned every time you play it. Strings stretch and distort the sound.

i'm a guitar instructor, and i've played in tons of bands. i'm leaning toward fewer effects. i like to just get my tone from my guitar, my amp, and my fingers. i have a recording studio in my house and i have literally dozens of pedal for that, but when i play out, i use an overdrive (which just give me a little more grit and volume), a chorus pedal ( with the rate set real low, and i'll send it to 2 amps sometimes) and a wah pedal. some songs just need a wah pedal.\n\nalso, the fewer things involved, the fewer things can go wrong.

Must think it will/would offend someone. I have a question for you, what kind of music is allowed? If it is anything with WORDS IN IT, that's ridiculous! Oh wait' it's ridiculous already.\n\nThis is unrelated to your question, but...\nI was working one night in a restaurant I'd been at for almost two years, wearing a necklace I'd been wearing ever since I had started. It was a st. mike metal on a short chain, barely visible from the neck of my shirt ( I'm not Catholic, I just used to think it was lucky). My manager came up and told me I would have to remove it! I said no. He said yes. I refused and he left me alone about it. Can you imagine?

seat the head evenly & press down in middle of head w/finger..lightly, tap at each tuning lug opposite of each other & tighten or loosen until they're the same tone, note, the bottom head should be slightly higher in pitch. for further specifications of directions, feel free to contact me at my email address.

yes go to drop tuning which usually youll go drop d and anything lower then that and you may want to get yourself a bass guitar.  but if you dont know how to go to drop just get a tuner and wait until your reading for the 6 string comes out as a 3d and that would be drop d tuning

Lower your low E one full octave or tone. I believe if you capo the second fret, you'll have the sound your looking for.

Once you raise or lower the action on a bass, you need to check the intonation.  That is, the distance between the nut and the bridge.  If this is off, you can tune your instrument all day and it won't sound right when played with others.  To do this:\n\n1. adjust the action of your strings\n2. tune your instrument using a digital tuner\n3. on each string, fret the 12 fret and make sure it's in tune.  If not, adjust the intonation using a screw driver at the back of the bridge (a screw is usually connected to the saddle that a string sits on and turning it one way or another will shorten or lengthen the strings "distance" to the nut).\n4. Retune your bass\n5. Do 3 & 4 until intonation is properly set\n\nIf you're trying to fix a buzzing problem, raising the strings may not be the answer; your neck may be "bowed" back or too flat.  A properly setup bass has a slight forward bow to it which eliminates most buzzing.  This bow is managed using the instruments truss rod, a metal rod extending down the length of neck from the headstock to the body.  By turning it one way or the other, you can increase (bow back) or decrease (bow forward) the tension on the neck.  Each bass has it's own criteria for setting this up, so you should consult with the manufacturer.  Also, if you've never done this before, I would highly recommend having someone do it for you and have them explain how it's done.  Properly setting up a bass is combination of science and feel; an error can cause damage to your instrument and, worst case, snap the neck.

Why? Leave the scratches. It gives your guitar personality.\nOr buy a new pickguard.

I would save up until you have enough to buy a Fender Precision. I wouldn't recommend getting a really cheap bass.

Nope - sounds a little too morbid for my taste - besides, I don't even own a guitar!!! (but I answered your question because you've asked it several times)

I play guitar as a hobby and it's been my experience that people are pretty particular about their guitars.  Grown men affectionately nickname their guitars and many are looking for a certain feel.  Things as trivial as the distance between frets or the number of frets can be issues.  I believe most guitarists would want to go to the store and try a guitar out for themselves before making a purchase.

If you can get out to a large music store that deals in acoustic guitars, pick one that pleases you in size, tone, and price.  Have a professional adjust it so it will play easy.  A guitar that plays hard and sounds bad is the biggest reason to not continue.  Good luck and hope you enjoy guitar playing as I have for the past 50 years.  And it's not over yet!!!
