Best Answer

A half step on a guitar is one fret. In other words, if you play an A note on the second fret third string, A# would be a half step higher which would be the third fret on the third sting. In any case, a half step is either one fret higher or one fret lower on the guitar neck.

A full step is when you tune a guitar up or down by two semi-tones (ex. E to F to F# or from B to A# to A). There are many different types of tuning, and I'm not sure exactly what you're asking for, so I would look up on google :S. Good luck!

If you're trying to cheat "up" , you can easily use the "capo," a clamp-like device which attaches onto the neck of the guitar. The Everly Brothers called it a "cheater." Please see the capo in the related links. If you're trying to cheat "down", you can try tuning your guitar down. For example, Stevie Ray Vaughn played with his guitar tuned down a half-step.

How do you tune a guitar to open G tuning?

Tuning a guitar to open G is adjusting the tuning to such a point as to playing all the strings open, and having the result be a G Major chord. To do this, tune both your high and low E-strings (strings 1 and 6) up by 3 half-steps, making them both G. Then tune your A-string up by 2 half-steps, up to B. given as the other string are played open in a G Major chord, you should now be tuned to "open G" tuning.
