Subject: RE: the blues scale and the bluegrass scale
All guitar tuners and most chromatic tuners use equal temperament.
There are a few expensive chromatic tuners that give you other options.
The reason your guitar sounds off away from C might be because the fretting hasn't properly allowed for changes in tension when strings are stopped. I know some people who use capos all the time and never tune their guitar with the strings open.
