Correction for Jim Carroll
"Tom Paley WAS notorious for tuning" Delete 'WAS' insert 'IS'. Won't use an electronic tuner as he apparently doesn't think they are accurate ?

Tom is right, they are not as good as the ear, but they get you close, i use them and then make final adjustments by ear, they are usefulk if you have been using several different tunings and the guitar strings are getting upset about being moved about
