A lot of these strobe pedal tuners have "sweetened" tunings for this very reason, yo.

I don't think anyone said that in this thread, Penny.

That's what I really took offense to as well as what Mike quoted.

Clearly someone is being a homofuckgaytard person.....

Anyways, strobo tuners are awesome for intonation, and if I was doing it professionally, I would spring for it. I feel if you are charging for a service, buying better tools is a good investment. That said, I know a guy who such a great ear that he can intonate ridiculously accurately just by ear. Close enough that a boss TU-2 can't tell the difference. SO strobos are great, but not necessary. Again, if I was doing alot of setups though, I would get one.

Because that was said directly to me when I said I did them by ear? Telling me I am lying is pretty fucking offensive. Buuuuut, maybe I'm just sensitive.

hahahaha

since when is disagreeing the same as calling somebody a liar? you don't really believe that, do you? and that's not saying you're lying, i just think you're having a go because there is such a clear difference between giving an opinion and calling somebody out for intentionally misleading somebody.

Hahaha. Damn those drunk conversations with you. But all the same, it pissed me off to be told I can't do something that I do all the time. Or to have that misinformation put out. That's how rumours start and shit. I herd Tom Brady has malaria....
