i dont know how to tune my guitar and i want an electric guitar tuner , what is the cheapest price you nkow of . Also , can you get them at The Hippie Hut ? My bro broke my skinny string , i think its the E string? idk but where can i get cheap strings , i got a 6 string acoustic guitar .
Your question firstly said "acoustic" but you want an "electric" tuner. There is no difference at all.
I have three Gibson guitars …. 1 acoustic electric, 1 slim-line acoustic electric, and 1 hard electric. My tuner works for all of them.
Guitar strings are really cheap. I pay NZ$15-00 for mine … probably US$10-00.
Tuners can range in prices. I have two that clamp to the top of the neck, not the plug in ones.
Go to a music shop and check them out … talk to the sales assistant. You would get a better answer because I’m in New Zealand and can’t work out the exchange rate of what they would cost.
You are right … .the "skinny string" is an "E"

That’s called your "little E string". It is a plain string (un-wound) with no wrapping around your core string. It will be made of metal or nylon & any shop should sell you a SINGLE string for under $2. Ask at the counter & take your guitar in with you (along with the broken string) & the clerk should replace it for free if they truly want to keep you for a customer. Some will tune it for free also. Others charge around $5 to do this.

Buy an extra, as your little brother will probably do it again & again & again!
