What is the guitar tuner?

The tuner is a device that detects a note’s pitch when played on the guitar string, and compares it to the right pitch. The tuner indicates whether the note is too high, too low, or in tune.

With time strings loosen, and the guitar needs to be tuned to maintain optimal sound.
