exactly what do you mean about half and full step tuning, tune the whole guitar down half/full step=?

[slaughteredsoul]

If you have an electronic tuner, simply placing your finger on the first fret (instead of the open string) and then using the tuner as you normally would will, in effect, tune your guitar down a half step. Likewise if you were to place a capo on the first fret of your guitar and then use the electronic tuner as normal (tuning to the "open" strings), you'll find that when you take the capo off your guitar will be tuned a half step lower. Obviously, if you put the capo on the second fret and repeat the process you will be a whole step lower once you take it off

The basic tuning lesson here at Cyberfret.com has tuning notes for standard, down and half step, and down a whole step.
