<br><font size=2 face="sans-serif">With those "perfect pitch"people.
try this: Take note 49- Tune it perfect in the middle string.
Next, take the left string; tune it to A-439. Then take right
string and tune to A 441. I'll bet nobody can tell which is right.
The good ones will pick one or the other, but I'll bet, even if you mix
it up differently, nobody can tell which is A-440! Try it...........</font>

guessing within 1 or 2 cents would indeed be mighty impressive, it is still
1-2 cents off. Not perfect pitch, just very (very) good note recognition.</font>
