    I tune my Oud as the following

    First string at the bottom

    Fa = F which is 5 clock on the tuner

    Do = C which is 12 clock on the tuner

    So = G which is 7 clock on the tuner

    Re = D which is 2 clock on the tuner

    La = A which is 9 clock on the tuner

    And the last string is Fa which is F 5 clock on the tuner


    Will start with first string Fa which is 5 clock


    If we find our tuner giving 2 or 3 clock that we need to … tight on the string to reach 5 clock


    And if we find Fa is giving us 7 clock for example than we need to lose on it till we reach 5 clock


    Make sure you hold the right peg otherwise will break the string if it’s the wrong pass


    After you tuned the first string of Fa

    Now you can tune the second string by holding the first string with our finger like that


    Each two strings on the oud are in Unison which is both of these strings are Fa or F


    After you tune the same on the tuner, you have to trust your ears by fine tuning the rest


    And don’t worry all other strings will be tuned as the same as Fa


    Will learn more next video
