Cask Edward put into good order (5)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

tuned

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'into good order' is the definition.
I can't tell whether this defines the answer.

'cask edward' is the wordplay.
'cask' becomes 'tun' (tun is a kind of cask).
'edward' becomes 'Ed' (short for Edward).
'tun'+'ed'='TUNED'

'put' is the link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for tuned that I've seen before include "Got engine right" , "Adjusted (musical) pitch" , "(Of radio) set to a frequency" , "on song" , "Adjusted (eg, a piano)" .)

I've seen this clue in The Globe and Mail.
