Relative Tuning: Tuning A Guitar To Itself
This means that one string is tuned using another string as a reference. Then that string is used as a reference for the next and so on. When all of the strings have been adjusted by this method they are said to be in tune relative to each other.
It is worth noting that if the first string is out of absolute tune then all the other strings are now also out of wack. This means that they do not vibrate at the generally accepted frequencies or notes. A low E for example may not actually sound like a low E. The beauty of this method is that even though they are out of absolute tune they still can sound good when all are played together.

patterns I’m only thinking about the NOTES in a particular key.
