Thank you for sharing the charts! I bought a guzheng from overseas but I did not understand how to tune even after I watched the video. I learnt guzheng with Eight Tone 4 years ago but die to family commitment with 2 kids, I couldn’t continue anymore. So I bought a medium size version just to maintain my interest and slowly pick up again thru youtube.
Thank you for your explanation. That really helps. Though I have a question you could hopefully answer. I'm left-handed and like to know if it is possible to tune the Guzheng the other way around to allow me to pluck with the left hand?
Hi, you can also pluck with your left hand using the same direction. Plucking works with both hands, so it doesn't matter if you are left handed or right handed. You have to pluck with both eventually.

please how do i tune the guzheng to A scale?? i need to tune it to a for this song 春到湘江 I only know G scale..
Hi, for A scale, the highest note (string1) is C#, followed by B, A, F#, E, then on repeat to C# again. The coloured string should be tuned to A
Hello, Can i also tune it in 432hz using this mechanism? Thank you
I believe so, but for optimum sound, you need to adjust the bridge distance.
hello, i have a 16 stringed guzheng. Would i tune it the same way i would a 21 string?
No it won't be. Because it is not a standard Guzheng, could be another type or something, so I won't know what the tuning is.
