Eh, I'm not really sure what you'd need to tune it to. I'd reccomend getting a capo as soon as possible. If you have a pencil and a rubber band, you can make a little makeshift capo, it'll work until you can buy one.

Tuning to fourth? Weird tuning to play open. Literally just buy a capo they're really cheap.

For future reference its: G#, C# F#, B, D# and G#
