[Bm]
[G] So how do you like the tuner Sam?
I love the tuner I've always I
[D]
Yep, no, [Ab] I love I love the strobe style readout and [E] it's it's very very accurate
especially on these
[Dbm] instruments [Cm] and I can even
[G] Because of this [B] adjustable feature I [Ab] can even [F] use it for instance
To tune [A] my fiddle.
Yes, and put that on the fiddle bridge [Db] and it's right there
[Ab] Mm-hmm, and because of the adjustability of the sideways or back and forth so not
The first one I've ever had that I could have fun using on the fiddle, but I'm incredibly [Gb] accurate
on [Db] the mandolin where sometimes
Clip-ons for [Ab] me seem to maybe work better on guitars than anything else
Whereas on the mandolin it's been more of a [G] compromise and trying to learn where [B] [Eb] you plus you've got unison [N] switches
They'd give away when they're not in tune right now.
Now, [E] of course
when tuning the unison
Holly I get I tune I get one of them with [B] the strobe and you need to [E] use your ear
You get it together right?
[Am] It's like a voicing [E] right?
It's like voicing it.
[A] No
Or that strings of tune
my ear
[Gb] Nothing will drive [E] a man player buggy more than [G] you when your pairs are not together You know
Can it [Gb] can be perfect not perfectly in tune?
But if your pairs are [B] apart it just nails on a blackboard first became [Eb] aware of a stroke style tuner [Ab] in
High-school band.
I graduated my school in 19.
[G] Our band director [Gb] got so tired of
[N] Hearing the horns out of tune and everything that he got schooled by a stroke tuner
Before I don't know if there was a Peterson there was back there [Eb] was there
Yeah, so there were two companies con and Peterson.
[Ebm] That's all they were for [G] anything.
So we know they're doing this was a construct
And yeah, every horn player would [C] stop on their way through the door and [G] tune with that strobe and it was amazing
How [Ab] how much better it made our band [Abm] sound?
[Em]
We had fun and then [Ab] so then years later when we had our band [C] new grass revival Curtis Burke [G] our guitarist
[Db] Is so good
[B] That we discovered if Curtis tuned all [Abm] of our instruments
[N] We were really one person $2
And he was also good [Gb] at even tuning a fiddle and that's you have to know how much pressure to have on the road
And the same is like when you're doing them
[Ab] One thing you need to do is make sure and I think it works
Both true on [E] any instrument you have to play you have to play the string the same volume you're going to play it
You can't just barely [A] hit it You know
[E] Like that [G] so [A] Curtis
[Em] would tune all of our stuff to a Peterson strobe and
[B] Man, we were the most into the world and then one day we [Ab] were out here's something
I wonder if you guys do we read a [Eb] bluegrass festival me down the Sun and he can't see [A] the
the face [Db] of the
So somewhere along [C] the line he came up to you he came up with the idea to [E] get if you like
collapsible drinking cup and [B] cut the bottom out of it and he [E] glued it on the tuner [Eb] when he was in the Sun he could
Pull it out the [F] telescopic
[Gb] Drinking cup we used to use toilet [Ab] rolls
So the collapsible drinking cup really worked out these I [N] seem to be able to see in the Sun these are LCD
So you'll never have [A] problems seeing them in the daylight
Well, [E] I really am happy [Ab] with this the new [B] Peterson strobe
[N]
