How do I tune a bass guitar online?

Click 'Start Tuning', allow microphone access, then pluck a bass string. The needle shows how many cents off you are — adjust the tuning peg until the needle turns green.

Question 2

What is standard bass guitar tuning?

Accepted Answer

Standard 4-string bass tuning is E-A-D-G, from lowest to highest (E1-A1-D2-G2). This matches the lowest four strings of a standard guitar but one octave lower.

Question 3

Does this bass tuner work for 5-string and 6-string bass?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Select '5-string' or '6-string' from the tuning menu. 5-string adds a low B string (B0). 6-string adds both a low B and a high C string.

Question 4

What is Drop D bass tuning?

Accepted Answer

Drop D bass tuning lowers the lowest string from E to D, giving you D-A-D-G. It adds a deeper low D and makes it easier to play in D-based rock and metal grooves.
