Tuning Fork (A440)

Item Description

  • Tuned to A above middle C (A440)
  • 4.5mm diameter prongs give a pure and clean tone
  • Supplied with soft plastic case
  • Electronic tuners are easy to use, but this is the best way to develop your ear while tuning
  • Suitable for use with any tunable instrument. Most commonly used with stringed instruments.


Hit the fork on a hard object to make it resonate at 440Hz and then hold the bottom on a wooden surface (like your instrument) to amplify it. Then simply tune your A string to the tone of the fork and then the rest of your strings to your A string.
