Do you need help tuning your instrument?
- Please remember, do not turn your pegs without a teacher's help! This is the easiest way to break a string. Visit the music store that you rent your instrument from for free tuning. The Quinlan & Fabish Montgomery is located close by and additional details and locations can be found on their website here.
- If you are comfortable turning your fine tuners (the small screws near the bridge) or the machine head (basses only), you may click here to use this free online tuner.
