In this video I show how to tune a Mandolin, in two parts.
Part One
Within the first minuet has me plucking each of the 4 notes of the mandolin which is all many might need. I then give 2 more tuning tips (tuning up and tuning to itself)
Part Two
The second "part" of this video is a far more detailed description of tuning a mandolin using Hertz numbers and cents to get the tuning exact. (It is really half of a "How to set up a mandolin" video).
I made this video because I have met a lot of people who have trouble differentiating between notes that are close in pitch.
To remedy this, I:
1- Show how to use HERTZ numbers on free tuning app to help you get it spot on. (There are many free (or not) tuning apps. n-Track tuner is just the one I happen to use.
2- Show how to place the bridge in the best location using CENTS to get perfect intonation (with free tuning app).

2:04 Tuning UP (Quick tuning tip # 1).
3:12 Tuning to "Its self" (Quick tuning tip # 2).
