Hi, I’m a beginner learning guitar. I noticed that after a month or so my guitar doesn’t sound the same but it’s not too bad. And I am hesitant to tune my guitar frequently because I’m afraid that some strings might snap.

Is it fine to not tune guitar until it sounds garbage (unrecognizable)?

    Keep it tuned. If you’re trying to play along with songs or backing tracks (recommended), an out of tune guitar is really annoying.

    It’s also fun to play with alternate tunings. Drop D and an open D for slide are my favorite alternates.
