Right on Sy.

I would take that one step further, and say that it would be very _difficult_
for either an aural-only OR and electronic-only tuner to produce as high quality
tuning as an expert aural tuner using her/her ears AND a Sanderson Accu-Tuner
(SAT)  This is especially true if you consider a reasonable time factor for
tuning such as an hour so.  The SAT compliments aural tuning and vice-versa if
used together correctly.
