Hi Randy,
Several months ago there was mention made of a robotic tuner for guitar which I purchased. You put the tuning gear knob into a receptical on the machine, and then you hit the string you're trying to tune. The machine will tune it and beep when done. I've been using this tuner for some time now, and like it a lot for your application, i e, tuning for recording. Its not a good solution for a quick tune, i e, on stage, but if you got the time, its great!

Thanks Bill. I can tune fairly close by ear, but not as close on some days as on others. I'm just hoping for a way to tune very accurately without having to use an electronic tuner which must be intepreted by a sighed person. Thanks again.
