7 Free Online Guitar Tuners

Tuning your guitar can be as simple as tuning to a single pitch (usually using the A string) and relatively tuning your guitar from that note, right through to tuning each string to it’s desired pitch.

If you primarily have your guitar hooked up to your computer for practice and your chosen piece of software doesn’t come with a tuner (for whatever reason) then you should check out these free online guitar tuners, which often do more than the label says.

There are a bunch of free online guitar tuners out there, and for me, there are two types of tuners. There are those that play a note, or a sound file that you match with your guitar by ear and there are the tuners that ‘listen’ to the sound coming out of your guitar and tell you to either tune up or tune down.

Personally when it comes to online guitar tuners I’m a little miffed why they can’t be the second, more interactive type of guitar tuner. I think I might have to have a talk to some flash developers about that and see if I can get one put up on this website.

But for now, here are the best free online guitar tuners I have come across (ones that play a tone and you tune your guitar by ear).

Giesen Tuner
Chord Book Tuner
Hot Frets Tuner

Plus there’s a whole host of Guitar Tuners just like this that are available for download on the PC, Mac or Linux. You should be able to find a bunch of free guitar tuners, but if you get stuck just give me a yell and I’ll do a post with links to some of my faves.

Cheers!
