Keeping a guitar in tune can be quite a task, especially for
beginning guitarists.
However, if you
want to be a guitarist, it’s something you’ll have to tackle. My suggestion is
to get a cheap tuner from Guitar Center or Musician’s Friend.
It should run you about fifteen dollars,
which is money well spent.
After buying
it, you’ll have to practice using it, and obviously, you’ll have to memorize
the notes of the strings.
From lowest to
highest sounding pitch, they are the following notes.
E A D G B E
Fortunately, there’s also a mnemonic device to help you
learn the names of the strings.

I realize that for beginning guitarists it’s a lot easier to
hand a guitar to someone else to tune, but with continued practice, tuning a guitar
gets easier and easier.
