I’ve tried tuning the guitar, but the first fret keeps coming out of tune. What should I do?Updated 12 days ago

If your guitar sounds out of tune when you play notes on the first fret, the issue may be related to the grooves in the guitar's nut. 🎸

🛠️ A quick fix for adults

This adjustment should only be performed by an adult who is comfortable making small modifications to a guitar. If you're not sure, don't worry—our Customer Support team can help!

Using a small file, carefully deepen the groove in the nut a little at a time. Go slowly and check the tuning as you make small adjustments. You only need to remove a tiny amount of material.

⚠️ Please do not let children attempt this adjustment. A knife or other sharp tool can cause injury, so we recommend using a small, appropriate file instead.

If you're unsure about making this adjustment or have any questions, please contact our Customer Support team through this link. We're happy to help! 😊🎸
