Loosen the string and tune up to the correct note. In other words your string should be well below the correct pitch and only then do you begin to tighten. That way you avoid breakage by tightening the string too much. Listen carefully to make sure the two pitches match and that there is no wah-wah-wah or clashing sound between the two notes.

First of all we shall look at the standard tuning of bass guitars.

On a 7-string bass a high F-string is added. The settings on a 7-string bass are B-E-A-D-G-C-F where B is the lowest and F the highest.

Tuning your bass is not hard. But as with any other instrument it involves practice. And of course, practice makes perfect. After a while you may find that you do not even have to rely on an electronic tuner to tune your bass. Hope you found this guide useful. Good luck.

How to Tune a Bass Guitar

So how do you tune your bass?

On a five string bass the tunings are similar with the addition of a low B string.

Now all you have to do is match the pitch of the strings to the corresponding notes on your tuner. Hopefully your ears are sufficiently developed (musically), for you to hear this. When the note on your bass is the same as that of your tuner, the vibration patterns will match and you will hear no wah-wah-wah sound when you play the two notes. There will be no clash between the two notes.

As long as the notes are in sync, you will hear no wah-wah-wah sound. But if you pass the in tune point, you will begin to hear that undesired sound again, and it means that you will have to loosen on the string a little until you get back to the in tune point.

Tune all your strings one by one by matching the sound of the strings to the corresponding note on your tuner.

Tuning your bass is all about matching the pitch of your instrument to that of a bass guitar tuner, pitch pipe, tuning fork or a correctly tuned piano or keyboard. If you do not have a tuner or keyboard instrument, you can find an online tuner by doing a search.

This material seeks to answer your question on how to tune a bass guitar. Well since I don't know exactly how many strings are on your bass guitar I shall present you with different options, namely, 4-string, 5 string, 6 string, and 7 string basses.

On a six string bass guitar, a thinner (higher pitched) string is added, and is tuned to C. In other words on a 6 string bass guitar the settings are B-E-A-D-G-C, where B is the fattest string or lowest note and C the highest and thinnest.

Nowadays the third Monday in February is usually known as Presidents' Day, a holiday honoring two great American presidents, George Washington and Abraham Lincoln. Today's modern holiday has some pretty humble roots and plenty of interesting American tidbits.

George Washington was actually born on 11 February 1731. How could that be? Everyone knows his birthday is 22 February. When Washington was born, the colonies were using the Julian calendar, which was eleven days behind the Gregorian calendar. In 1752, Britain and the colonies switched to the Gregorian calendar, moving Washington's Birthday to 22 February.

George Washington distinguished himself as an American patriot in the Revoluntary war. He even created the Purple Heart, a medal recognizing soldiers who had been injuried in battle. His leadership, courage, and valor earned him the nickname, "The Founder of his Country." Washington was the Electoral College's only choice to be the first president of the United States.

During Washington's last year as president, his birthday became the holiday known as "Washington's Birthday," but it wasn't until 1885 when President Chester A. Arthur finally signed legislation making it a federal holiday.

Abraham Lincoln was born on 12 February 1809 and distinguished himself as the president who preserved the United States during the Civil War. Many states honor Lincoln by celebrating his birthday as a state holiday. Connecticut still celebrates Lincoln's birthday as a state holiday regardless of what day it falls on. Lincoln, however, has never had his birthday celebrated on the federal level.

In 1968, Congress passed the Uniform Monday Holiday Bill, designating Washington's federal holiday to be celebrated on the third Monday in February. The intent of the bill was to move the holiday to Monday to promote business, but it wasn't until the late 1980's when businesses began using the "Presidents' Day" tag to lure consumers into the stores. Since then, the informal label has stuck and the official "Washington's Birthday," has been known to the general public as Presidents' Day.

Several states have taken liberties with the holiday. For example, Massachusetts not only celebrates Washington's birthday, but also issues a proclamation honoring past presidents from the state including John Adams, John Quincy Adams, Calvin Coolidge, and John F. Kennedy. Alabama celebrates "Washington and Jefferson Day." (Thomas Jefferson) Arkansas celebrates "George Washington's Birthday and Daisy Gatson Day."

The senate has its own traditions as well. Since 1862, George Washington's farewell address is read on or around his birthday.

While the holiday has been expanded in recent years to include other presidents, the intent to honor Washington, and after the Civil War, Lincoln, still resounds through American society.

Well, don't tell us because it may send your mom into a spin but here are some ideas you can adopt for Halloween using the theme from the popular television reality show.

1. Have you got leather mini-skirt? Mini-skirts are the essential first component of a low rider outfit and they need to be black. This is one area where you can save yourself a few bucks if you have one gathering dust in your closet.

2. A matching black bra is a must. Again, it should preferably be leather. Then add a red belt which compliments the black skirt perfectly.

3. Now here is the tough part. Finding a flesh colored shirt and imprinting some artwork on it. Scouring the second-hand stores is going to be your best bet and you're likely to come up with several shirts. Then get hold of a black leather head-band for more effect.

4. Now for the most important component of all. Your very own biker dude to take you the fancy dress party. In fact, you could organize a group of friends and adopt the biker look. One of the best parts of a theme such as this is it can be very inexpensive to produce but can be extremely effective.

Halloween is a great time of year, enjoyed by so many families. However it can be a busy holiday and with excitement running high and increased commotion it is worth taking a step back to ensure you are making it a safe Halloween for all your family.

Costumes & Outfits

Ensure purchased costumes and wigs are flame proof.

Reduce the risk of falls and trips, by ensuring your child's costume is cut to a suitable length.

If your child is venturing out in the evening, be aware of the temperature drop and ensure their costumes are going to be sufficient.

Trick or Treat

The safest way to trick or treat is to visit family and friends.

When trick or treating outside of your friends & family circle, ensure you map a route and where possible get a sensible adult to supervise the group.

Small children should not be allowed out unsupervised.

Elder children that are unsupervised should be given a set time for their return and where possible, should be collected as a group from a suitable meeting point.

Make sure your children understand not to go into strangers homes. Also point out they should not accept lifts or get into strangers cars.

Trick or treat in larger groups. Ensure all members of your party understand the rules you have set out for them.

When moving around the neighbourhood remind your children to be extra vigilant about traffic. Small neighbourhood roads can be dangerous areas for children not paying attention.

Explain the difference between vandalism and tricks! It is very easy for children to get caught up in the moment or respond to peer pressure. Think of your trick ideas before you set off!

Check your child's treats before they consume!

Pumpkins

Carving pumpkins is not suitable for small children. If you are worried and want to avoid disappointment, why not buy a prop pumpkin instead?

If using candles/ flames within your pumpkin ensure they are kept well away from hanging materials, never leave unattended and ensure children understand the dangers they carry.

Pets

With the increased flow of persons around your neighbourhood it is advisable to keep pets in on Halloween.

Make sure all lanterns and decorations are kept away from pets.

Trick or Treaters may result in you opening and closing your front door more than normal. If your pet is likely to be disturbed, keep them enclosed in one peaceful area.

As a general rule, pets don't enjoy being dressed up! It may seem cute but leave Halloween for you and your children.

Take care this Halloween, follow a few simple rules for your family's safety and have fun!

Decorating your Thanksgiving table can be a breeze - and you don't have to invest a lot of time or money to do it!

Table decorations provide a quick and easy way to set a festive scene for your Thanksgiving dinner. But maybe you don't want to spend a lot of money or take a lot of time to make these seasonal accents. Just use these ideas to turn your Thanksgiving table into a beautiful, welcoming feast.

Bountiful Wreath

Making your own Thanksgiving wreath can not only save you some money, but it also lets you have fun creating a truly unique decorating piece. You can use this wreath beginning in September, right through Thanksgiving.

The basics you'll need are a grapevine wreath and a glue gun, which are both readily available at crafts stores. Once you have those, you'll need to decide how you'd like to decorate the wreath. Popular options are ribbon, pine cones, faux mini pumpkins or gourds, Indian corn and artificial flowers. Browsing the aisles at a crafts store will yield lots of ideas - and don't be afraid to use your imagination!

Once you've gathered all of the materials, find a large, flat working surface. Lay out all of the items so you can find them at a glance. Begin by gluing pumpkins, Indian corn, gourds, pine cones and such onto the grapevine wreath. If you are using flowers, tuck those into empty spaces. Remember, the more flowers or leaves you use, the fuller your wreath will look. If you want to use ribbon, add it to your wreath last. Tie it into a large bow and add glue from your glue gun to the back before adding it to your wreath. Now you're ready to enjoy it on your door or wall!

Cornucopia

A cornucopia is always a timeless choice for Thanksgiving decorating. Simply purchase a simple cornucopia basket from a crafts store and then fill it with real fruits and gourds or plastic fruit and gourds, whichever you prefer. Try adding faux sugared grapes and fabric vines to complete the bountiful look.

Pretty Pumpkin

Want to use a real pumpkin to create a centerpiece? It's easier than you might think! Simply cut the top off of a pumpkin and clean it out as you would when preparing a jack-o'-lantern. Let the pumpkin sit exposed to air for about 2 hours to dry. Soak floral foam in water and then place it inside the pumpkin. Now you can add real or artificial flowers by pushing the stems into the foam, trimming the stems first to the height you wish. If using real flowers, be sure to water and add plant food every other day.

Ga-Ga for Gourds

If you're looking for an easy way to decorate that draws on the beauty of nature, simply arrange mini gourds and pumpkins on a pretty tray and add a fragrant candle or two to the center

Pumpkin Place Cards

Place cards add a festive touch to Thanksgiving dinners. There are many ways to make these, but one of the fastest ways is to write each guests' name on a mini pumpkin. During the meal, these spunky place cards do double duty as decorations, and after the meal, each guest has a little memento to keep.

Even if you're on a tight budget or pressed for time, there are simple ways you can decorate your Thanksgiving table that will leave a lasting impression.
