Tuning your guitar as close to pitch as possible can be one of the best things you can do for your guitar. Think of it like this - what you think you sound like as you hear your own voice isn't actually what others are hearing. this is because your laranyx & vocal cords are vibrating so close to your head & ears that you percieve a different frequency or pitch that the note your singing is acutally registering at.
A tuner on the other hand, is never off. 440 Hertz is your A string frequency, and that doubled is 880 Hertz which is that same A note but an octave higher on your sheet music. Pretty sweet huh?
So, to develop your ear training. Practice tuning with your electronic tuner first after putting new strings on, then see how close you can get to match the tones you heard before. This is crutial in the development of your ear training. :)
