QuestionHow do you intonate a guitar?Aaron Asghari is a Professional Guitarist and the lead guitarist of The Ghost Next Door. He received his degree in Guitar Performance from the Guitar Institute of Technology program in Los Angeles. In addition to writing and performing with The Ghost Next Door, he founded Asghari Guitar Lessons, where he was the primary guitar instructor for many years.This involves adjusting the saddles at the bridge. Tune the strings to pitch, then play the twelfth fret while checking your tuner to make sure the note is still in tune. If a note is too sharp, move the saddle backward. If the note is too flat, move the saddle forward.

QuestionDo you need to do anything to the nut as strings are thinner than the conventional it is cut for?MidLifeISISCommunity AnswerNot typically. While some brands tend to sell strings specifically for high strung tuning or Nashville tuning, that’s merely a preference towards the sound you want to project. The guitar nuts aren’t modified, regardless of the strings you use.

QuestionCan I use the low E string in the high E string position?MidLifeISISCommunity AnswerActually, no. Since the high E string is 2 octaves higher than the low E string, using Nashville tuning for the low E string still leaves the necessary required note absent.
