USING THE TUNER
The guitar is equipped with an A4=440Hz standard pitch tuner. The
tuner’s circuitry is independent from the guitar’s output circuit so
switching the tuner ON/OFF will have no affect on sound output.
q
Press the TUNER switch. While the tuner activates the
and
lamps
light alternately.
w
Tune the guitar string until the note name of the desired pitch appears in
the tuner’s display.
The
lamp indicates the pitch is low.
The
lamp indicates the pitch is high.
The pitch indicator (
) flashes slower as the string’s pitch nears the
note shown in the display.
e
The string is in tune when the
and
lamps both light.
* The tuner automatically switches OFF when not used for more than one minute
(energy saver function). Press the TUNER switch again to switch it back on.
* It may take a few seconds before the tuner can detect pitches after being switched
ON.
* The note name and
displays may have difficulty keeping up with irregular
pitch changes. Gradually change the pitch and check when tuning.
* The tuner may have difficulty detecting notes rich with overtones or with very
short sustain.
