If you have a piano, tune the fourth string to a low D (the octave below middle C), then tune it to itself - hold down the fifth fret of the fourth string and tune the third string to that, then tune the second string to the fourth fret of the third string, the first string to the third fret of the second string, and the fifth (highest) string to the fifth fret of the first string.
But if you're having troubles with the bridge placement, it's best to bring it into a professional to look at.
