D# = 439, or 4 cents Flat
G# = 439, or 4 cents Flat
E = 442.5, or 10 cents Sharp
B = 442, or 8 cents Sharp
G# = 439, or 4 cents Flat
F# = 441.5, or 6 cents Sharp
E = 442.5, or 10 cents Sharp
D = 441.5, or 6 cents Sharp
B = 442, or 8 cents Sharp

AI on tuners.

Awful. Just awful. Learning to tune is part of learning to play.

Michael, maybe yes, but I would be interested if anyone has tried one.
Could be fun, another gadget to add to the rest.
Peterson tuners, ears and fingers work for me though...

True.
But this might be handy in a noisy bar room where you can't hear very well...if it actually I works.

Rather than write absolutes within the chart I write offsets in cents along the bottom, like -5, -2, etc. It has handy in a noisy bar

Some player friends of mine said they didn't like it because you couldn't "tweak" the tuning..
