Have no idea how to use it

I have a guitar and a Silvertone Stun2 tuner, but I have no idea how the tuner works. These were hand-me-downs so I don't have instruction books.

I can't find info other than the tuner has three lights for flat on, and sharp.

given that you would plug it in and do a close tune of the guitar by ear.

Then you would strum one string at a time and tweek the peg tighter if it shows flat, looser if it shows sharp, until it shows the light right on.

I would recommend you get a book on guitars to learn how to tune and also check the setup of the guitar.

Also I would recommend you get a Korg tuner... they are about $20 from online sources and they are much easier to use.

How do I set the tuner to tune at different keys?

Good question, tuners can be simple and some are complicated
a basic automatic guitar tuner you would not have to do anything to the settings, just tune normal on the E string then slowly down tune to D most tuners are a little sensitive, so go slow
and one thing I always do is go lower than the note I'm tuning to then tune up tell it's correct, strings seem to stay in tune better
Hope this helps ?
and if you have time check back on my profile
I will be doing some video tips this weekend
showing tuning, and some basic guitar repairs
thanks for your time

Don't know how to turn on tuner

put a battery in your guitar. It goes in the space at the bottom, usually where you connect your cable to your amp.
Then hold the guitar as you usually would.
Look for a little board with buttons on the side of the guitar to turn on the tuner: )

Just purchased a used Alvarez FF60WR. The Electrical part works, but the on board tuner does not. It lights up when you turn it on, but the pitch indicator lights do not flash, and neither do the arrows,...

my on board tuner used to do that. I just tried to tune the guitar normally and it usually worked after a couple of seconds. The tuner needs sound to work - it won't work without you playing any notes :)

I hav a Silvertone sslb11 bass that needs a new volume pot and don't know wich one to buy. I don't see any part numbers or values printed on the pot. Does anyone know part numbers, brand, or...

I recommend checking music stores in your area for that, it doesn't have to be any specific rating of impedence. Depending on brand, I see guitars with anything from 50 ohms to 250 ohms. This only allows a faster cutoff on volume than others. The most critical action is to have a smooth taper, meaning a straight volume rise or decline versus one that goes down slowly or quickly and suddenly cuts off. Most any guitar volume control from a music store will work just fine. In case I confused you, ohms is the rating of the control, the taper or smoothness is classed as A, B, or C. A is normally for volume controls and B is used mostly for tone controls. Knowing that should give you insight insight to the difference of the controls.

The input cable fits into the guitar but it won't stay put, it just slides out as if it were too small.

Pro's loop the cable through their belt or guitar strap to avoid cable pulling out or twisting and wearing the connector.
