Press the foot switch with the same number
as the currently-selected patch in Play
mode to turn the Bypass or the Mute
function on.
The display changes from “ ” (or “ ”) to
“”.
If you wish to tune the instrument quietly on the stage, the
Mute function is useful.
Pluck the string to tune without pressing
the frets.
The name of the note that is closest to the sound
pitch appears on the display. Tune the guitar
while checking the note name.
When the desired note name appears on the
display, make fine adjustments until the
center parameter LED lights up.
When you are using the Auto Tuner function, the
parameter LEDs function as a tuning meter. If the
pitch is tuned correctly, the center parameter LED
(“ ” mark) lights up.
When you finish tuning, press one of foot
switches 1–3, the [BANK▲] switch, or the
[FUNCTION] switch (unless the “Ct” function
is assigned to the [FUNCTION] switch.)
The 2100 returns to normal Play mode.

Fine-tuning the reference pitch of the tuner (Calibration)
You may calibrate the frequency of the center “A” as the reference of the internal tuner. This
function is useful when you wish to tune the guitar to the pitch of a sound source you cannot tune,
such as a CD or acoustic piano.
