> Well, we've had some interesting discussions on here lately about tuning > guitars, check the archives. I've certainly learned how to improve my tuning, I almost passed up those conversatins, but stayed on the thread long enough to find the one most important peice of information that has (really!!!) improved my tuning... That is... tune one string with some tuning device (i use a pitch fork) and then tune (all other) strings to (that one) string that was tuned to the tuning device. That way, there isn't a huge deviation from the original "center" because all strings are being tuned from the same reference point. I understand the concept about the "A" string being "more stable" and therefore start with that one. But I've had luck with the "B" string (because I tune my guitar down a whole step and so the "B" string is now an "A" string and the tuning fork is an "A" note). But I've had great luck with this.
