You can either use an analog or digital guitar tuner. If you get good enough with the guitar you can even do it by ear. Here is what standard tuning should be from low (the thickest string) to high (the thinnest string) should be on a regular six string guitar E A D G B E. Seven String Guitar standard tuning- B E A D G B E. 4 String Bass Guitar standard tuning - E A D G. 5 String Bass Guitar standard tuning- E A D G B. If you ever forget what strings should be what notes most guitar teachers teach this acronym to help students remember standard tuning. E- Every A- Arrow D- Does G-Good B- Before E- Entering

EADGBE. Other tunings are used, such as drop d, open E et al. The way the guitar is actually tuned is by adjusting the tension of the strings via the tuning keys (usually located on the headstock).

Well, its easy. You know how you see the ends of the guitar they might have 3 or the max of 4 things with some thing that can make itself turn, so you turn it and ask a good player how they could tune it
