Your best bet would be to by a "pitch shifter" pedal. I wouldn't recommend trying to tune it up an octave.

How you can change the tension of a vibrating string?

To raise the pitch (frequency), put more tension on one end of the string. To lower the pitch, put less tension on one end of the string.For instance, on a guitar, tighten the string for a higher pitch. Loosen the string for a lower pitch.Additionally, if you have a guitar string already mounted and tensioned. You may place your finger in the middle of the string, and the pitch will go up one octave. Each time you halve a tensioned string, it produces a pitch one octave higher.


Guitar is very similar to a piano its notes are in the same place as the piano the piano has as 7 notes so does guitar cdefgab that is their order on the piano and guitar?

In classical western music, the same notes are used on all instruments. These can also be played on a guitar, and the same names are used. Their letter designations are also the same. Guitar players and piano players understand many of the terms such as "octave", "fifth", "major chord", "arpeggio" etc. in the same way. (Note that there are actually 12 notes if you include the black keys. These are also available on the guitar.) Guitar sheet music is typically written with the notes transposed up one octave. For example, the "middle C" on guitar sheet music is actually the same note as the next lower C on piano music. Most electronic keyboards with a "guitar" voice will make this transposition for you. Guitar sheet music usually does not use the bass staff found on most piano music. On a guitar, it is possible to make "microtonal" notes that cannot be played on a normal piano. These are achieved by "bending" the strings, stretching them sideways with the left hand. The technique is used to create expressive effects in blues and rock music.

How do you use a guitar tuner for a bass?

If your guitar tuner won't pick up the sounds of the open bass strings, try playing the 12th fret harmonic on each string instead. In other words, gently touch each string at the 12th fret while you pluck the string. It will make the sound one octave higher and your tuner should be able to pick it up and allow you to tune your bass. Most newer tuners work fine with bass guitar, but back when I started playing 25 years ago, they only made guitar tuners and that's what I had to do.
