As you’re strolling down the busy sidewalk, a melodic tune gently flows into your ears. Envisioning music notes floating through the autumn air, you aimlessly follow the brilliant yet calm sound of an arpeggio. To know exactly where these tunes are coming from, you slowly open your heavy eyes. A slender man with long fingers and a quirky side smile, the musician, is gingerly caressing a cherry-wood acoustic guitar, playing her ever so elegantly. Enamored by the melody, you stand there, watching his hands strum and pull the guitar’s steel strings. Cautiously, you take one step closer to him in order to get a better view of his hand positionings.

To properly tune your guitar, it’s helpful to have a guitar tuner, which you can obtain at your local instrument store. However, since most people nowadays have smartphones, you can use an app- such as GuitarTuna. The first time I tuned my guitar was by ear, which was a bad idea for someone who didn’t even know what the strings were supposed to sound like. I ended up tightening the string too much, and then- POP!- there went my strings! Now, most of the time, you’ll have to tune your guitar for standard tuning, which is EADGBe. Some songs will require a different tuned key; however, most use standard. To tune, you pluck the string. If it’s too flat, tighten the string by turning the peg towards you. If it’s too sharp, you loosen the string by turning the peg away from you. Unfortunately, sometimes your strings may break if you tighten them too much, so please be careful. Following your tuning session, you need to learn the strings themselves along with frets. The strings count from top to bottom: 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1. Frets start at the head of the guitar and move down from 1, 2, 3, etc. This information will assist you in finding your fingering positions
Omg I know exactly what this play is. I’ve read it last year in my English class. It’s called The Crucible, right?

But based on what I’ve read, it sounds like it had to do with an affair or something like that.
