RE: Hard tension to medium tension (in reply to etta)

quote:
As we know guitars may vary in tension from day to day, week to week, depending on humidity or lack of it, etc. When tension seems too high and uncomfortable on a guitar, I tune down to "Baroque tuning", 432, and it seems to help though this could be a "placebo"effect. I like high tension strings, and a very low action will allow them to be used with better playing ease. On my guitars tuning down to 432 does not seem to effect power or tonality. Interesting stuff etta, thanks for sharing it! I noticed that some songs, f.e. Entre Dos Aguas by PdL, are somewhat off in tuning. When my guitar is perfectly tuned with a digital tuner it sounds off. As if Pacos guitar is lower-pitched. Is that the mentioned "baroque tuning" or is there other reason to it?
