How this tuning was derived

Standard Guitar Tuning (EADGBE)

Standard tuning tunes the 6-string guitar to E2-A2-D3-G3-B3-E4, offering a balanced layout of perfect fourths and a single major third between the G and B strings. This classic configuration optimizes chord fingerings and scale navigation across the fretboard.

Why a strobe beats a needle

A needle answers "what is the average pitch right now?" A multi-harmonic strobe adds an extra layer to the tuning visualization by showing several harmonics at once, so you can fine-tune more confidently to fractions of a cent.
