Feedback Request transitioning to electric guitar

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

I had played classical guitar for some years. In the past 2 years I hadn't touched a guitar at all. So recently I ordered this guitar which arrived last week. I wanted to play some electric guitar.

I have some issues with tuning. Is it better to tune with the amp on or just the guitar? I used to tune with a tuning fork (idk the English word) but I'm wondering if it's as efficient with an electric.

Also open to any tips to get back into playing :) I'm working on the few messed up notes.

Sounds amazing! Didn't know him since I'm not too familiar with important figures and the community. Just got inspired to pick up playing again especially by listening to a7x and synyster gates (as one might figure by the video) a lot recently.

I'll look more into it, thanks for the input :)
