I am having touble tuning a Mini.
Chords don't sound right even if I tune it with using an electronic tuner. Should it be tuned differently ?
My tuner does not have other settings.....
Please help !

As far as I know the minis use standard tuning. However, if the open strings are in tune, but the chords do not sound like they are in tune, the guitar most likely needs an intonation. Just check one of the setup guides on the Fender Resources area for how to do an intonation. Its not too difficult as long as you have time, patience, a philips head screwdriver, and a tuner.

Thank you for directing me to the user guide intonation section.... the shop should have checked the Mini guitar before I bought it !
