Guitar Instructor
I bought a new guitar and my instructor says that all new guitars should have a "tuneup. Is this true?
He says the fretboard and other general clean things should be done. He wants to charge me $ 50 to do so. There should be a guitar in very good shape as it is new? Or is it possible that many hands went up and down the neck of the guitar in the store demanding 'adjustment'
I play, teach and horse-trade the guitar on the odd-O deadline for your instructor wants to do is called "set-up'-setup usually involves a new set of strings depending on how you is played is one hour per day, for example, sequences change every six weeks to two months. It also involves adjusting the "action", the height of the strings ffretboard up so that the strings are so low that you're getting fret buzz, and so loud that you can not press properly. The other item is check and adjust the 'intonation'-to make sure that when you set the guitar, he plays in tune all the way up the fretboard. You can verify that self-tune your guitar, since all the strings are tuned in standard tuning, check the tuning on the twelfth fret. If at least close all six strings, you're OK. If you just bought, he should have entered the music store created, even if it is a "starter pack". If not, bring it back and ask. One of the main reasons beginners lose interest is not a cheap instrument is playing an instrument that is evil configured. I went to setup and $ 50 is about what most music stores charge unless you are buying is new. Since you 're a beginner, you want this is your first guitar, not his last Good Luck!
