I hear ya. I'm too afraid to buy a Peterson VS tuner. I'd be tuning my guitar for days. Weeks even.

But I've found a program I use for intonating my guitars. It's called G-Tune. It's a strobe tuner for your PC. Works really well!

Doooo it. Do it. They're worth every cent \m/


Glory and praise to Thee, Satan, on high,
Where Thou didst reign, in Hell where Thou dost lie,
Vanquished, silent, dreaming eternally.
Grant that my soul some day rest close to Thee
Under the Tree of Knowledge which shall spread
Its branches like a Temple overhead.

Pun intended?


As for weird tunings, I was goofing around with some stuff today in A#FCFAD. It was really fun

And I have the tab here for Thornley's "So Far So Good" which is in BF#C#F#A#C#. Which is kinda what inspired the tuning I mentioned above.

I personally use the AP Tuner software.

Pet peeve: there is no way to have an 'electronic' or 'computerized' strobe tuner. Strobe tuners work on purely physical principles: a spinning disc and a strobe light.

Sure there is. There's spinning bars on a screen that emulate the spinning lights.

G-Tune has a strobe portion to it. Along with a spectrum analyzer and all sorts of other cool things.
