Tune the E's and A's 14 cents flat of the C's and G's.
I usually tune the C's and G's five cents sharp and the E's and A's 5 cents flat. It's a little bit out, but it allows the tuning to drift a bit without sounding horrible.

I use Bobs approach and it works great. I'm used to hearing it now.  |

I tried out Rick Aiellos tuning chart, and it sounds so much better than tuning all the strings "dead on" 440 hz. Is there any reason to why players seem to differ on what notes to sharp/flat, or is this just what your ears like? (Rick Aiello tunes the c to 440, while Bobbby Lee prefers 6 cents sharp)

Actually, I tune my C (root) about 5-10 cents sharp ... so my A,E and that C# (C6/A7) are not too flat.
I just used C ... "straight up" in that particular explaination .. for "simplicity sake"
JB tunes his E "straight up" ...
As long as the intervals agree ... the reference note is a personal thing ... whatever you get used to ...

| I recalibrate my tuner to A=442 and tune my tonic note(s) to zero there. The recalibration averages out the whole tuning better to compensate for the "detuned" major thirds and sixths. I then tune the rest of the strings to remove the beats and note where they end up on the tuner for future reference. And on a pedal guitar, this works better than any stock temperment chart, as each instrument has its own detuning and resonance characteristics. |
