The D\u2019Addario Nexxus 360 is the perfect tuner that you simply clip onto the headstock of any guitar. It doesn\u2019t matter whether you have an acoustic guitar or an electric guitar, the tuner will have no problem picking up the vibrations through the guitar\u2019s body. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Try to get into the habit of tuning your guitar every time you sit down (or stand up) to play. This will make sure your chords, scales, and songs always sound their best!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Your Guitar Playing Essentials<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"The Guitarist&#039;s Survival Kit - Play the Essentials\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/RZ9FzPv0QAo?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Choose a new pick from your D\u2019Addario Pick Variety Pack and crack open your Guitareo Survival Guide to learn the most important chords, strumming patterns, scales, and licks for guitar players of all skill levels.

Acoustic guitar strings typically last a little longer than electric guitar strings, but if you notice your strings sound dull, feel grimey, or look discolored and rusty, then it\u2019s probably time to reload your instrument with some new strings. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>With the D\u2019Addario Pro-Winder and the strings included in the Survival Kit, you\u2019ll have everything you need to perform a complete string change.
