What has more harmonics in its sound a tuning fork or guitar?

A guitar is a far more complex structure than a tuning fork, and has more harmonics. The whole design of a tuning fork is intended to give as simple and pure a sound as possible, since that is the easiest type of sound to use when you are trying to tune an instrument. You wouldn't want harmonics in a tuning fork.


What type of tuning fork would vibrate faster?

How do you tune your guitar to Bb F Bb Eb G C?

The best way to achieve this tuning is to have a guitar specific for this tuning. A reverse head guitar is the best to use, such as the pic below. You want the heavy string to be as long as possible, best to use Earnie Ball #2214 Mammoth Strings .012-.062. The extended length will help to keep the fat string from buzzing on the frets. You need the length to stretch that string.


Is there a different kind of tuner for electric guitar?

"Concert" tuning is the same on standard electric and acoustic guitars: EADGBE. No one says you can't tune either type of guitar to something else. However, there are multiple types of electric and acoustic guitars, for example: - 12-string guitar (EADGBE, then EADG high octaves and BE unison strings) - 7-string guitar (BEADGBE, or EADGBE with high-octave G) - baritone guitar (BEADGB) - tenor guitar (CGDA, DGBE and other variations) - Nashville tuning (EADGBE, but with EADG as high octaves -- basically a 12-string without the "normal" strings) - short-scale guitar (eg. Tacoma Papoose, which is tuned ADGCEA)
