XD > Lets see if we can start another semi useless string of which guitarists the world over can nit pick! :) Fact is, it is impossible to tune an acoustic guitar "perfectly"...Invariably, when you have it tuned so an open G chord sounds spot on, an open A or even C will be a tad off. And the same applies to the inverse of course. This all due to a general lack of adjustment for intonation on acoustic axes. But to the untuned ear (which I agree in sort...should be the final judge of how your axe is "tuned" ) this is not really noticeble. "don't let a hacker tune your guitar!" Now that's a great line! :) Although I'm not quite of the same ilk on this point (ergo...B52's Rock lobster 4 string special) and an untuned instrument of ~any~ sort will usually cause demons to appear in my personality and require excorcism if not remedied, if it is the missing "glue" to your music..... ~enjoy~ R~
