They all tune to the 2nd market fret - where the dots on the neck are. Except G to B is the fret behind that.
Actually - Electronic Tuners now. Forget training your Ear & Hands to do all that mess ...it's never as good anyhow.
Get a song you like written out with the Gittar Chords on it. Get a Chart shows where the fingers go to make those Chords.
Yer on yer way then, matter of fact. There's only A-G for Notes & Chords. Gittar is about Hand Shapes. Unlike Piano...

i friend built me a one-watt silvertone 1482 clone (including the tremolo circuit). it's my go-to practice amp, and has been getting some studio time on the sessions for our next record. quiet enough that you can talk over it, but sounds huge close-mic'd.
