1. KEY FEATURES: - Tuning fork A-440Hz (ra sound)

2. PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: Product introduction Pinch the handle of the tuning fork and tap the tip lightly to make it vibrate. While it is vibrating, you can hear the sound by bringing the tip of the handle close to a hard object such as the top of the guitar or near your ear. The sound produced by the tuning fork is the A note, which is the same sound as the open string of the guitar's 5th string (A note). The A note on the tuning fork is two octaves higher than the open note (A note) on the 5th string, so you need to match it with the harmonics at the 5th fret of the 5th string. Although it is difficult to get used to, tuning with a tuning fork is a great way to train your ears, and in recent years it has become popular as a healing item. A(ra)=440 was established at an international conference held in London in 1939, and subsequently became an international standard in 1953 and has not been changed until now (2013). (Usually written as "A=440 Hz" or "A440") However, there are many orchestras and brass bands that match at a pitch of A=442 or higher, and A=442 is also standardized in classical music. Time signals such as those on TV, radio, and 117 sound a 440Hz sound three times, followed by a final sound of 880Hz (one octave higher than 440Hz).
