No...you will be tuning DOWN the E string until it sounds like the low D string but it will be an octive lower. Then I check it by seeing if the E string at the 7th fret matches the open A string.

Use the thumbing D and E method until it sounds the same, it works on your tone as well, like I was tone def and would practice doing it by ear and then checking with my tuner, now I can tune anything!

Thakns for all your help. Very good of this little community of ours! lol.
But in the end i had to go to my local guitar shop and ask the dude( who was very helpful) But now i have a much better idea of what to do for the future. Thanks again.
Just while im here, im buying a new guitar at christmas time. The guy in the shop recommended a tanglewood. Are these generaly know as good guitars?
