I would enjoy learning more about your method. Thank you for this video. Having spent time with piano tuning and time wrestling with guitar intonation on recording sessions, I find your take very interesting.

I attended a small concert Pierre Bensusan gave in Pacific Grove, Ca. in the early 1980s. It was there, for the first time, that I understood that music is a language, communication, not just entertainment. Bensusan is a brilliant player with much to say. Peter, that is a brilliant piece of music befitting another great player, composer. Thanks.

I am going to set aside my spool clamps and get some drier clamps...I'll try it on my latest project.. a cavaquinho. I do a bit of art work.. when asked how I get effects that are unique to my work I reply with: 30 plus years of experience/experimentation and some PFM. AKA ... Pure F'ing Magic. Beautiful, and just as important, "original" guitars. Excellent videos, Thanks.

Great stuff Peter. I really enjoy your videos, thanks for the one on French Polishing. I feel like a fool for having tuned my guitar in what now seems to be a rather crude and inaccurate way. I did so thinking there was no practical way of getting it all correct. Thanks so much. Please could you do a follow up video, I enjoy the technical part which leads to a practical end. I also note Khasab's method.. is this a short cut to getting it right? I have been messing about with diatonic accordeons for a few years and submerged in the various way to tune those. It is amazing and fascinating how many styles of tuning there are. The only time I use a "just" tuning is on the simpler one row 10 button two base accordeons which are often called "Cajun" accordeons though invented by an Armenian Immigrant to Austria in 1829.

Just saw for the first time. While the commentry and info entailed, gave a mental picture of the pad construction and charging,, all I could really see was the image of the back of a guitar with some stuff happening in the top r/hand corner. I french polish, and have done so for 45yrs so no worries for me but not adequate for someone learning/lnterested in a serious "how to" instructional video

This is interesting and I appreciate the detail. Christopher Berg’s “Mastering Guitar Technique” (Mel Bay, mid-1990s) has a section where he discusses the compounding problems introduced by comparing 5th and 7th fret harmonics, which is still used by novices. I wonder if your part 2 proposes (will propose?) a solution similar to his.

I have been wondering if a very well applied french polish to a solid body guitar can be equal or better in resonance / sonic and tonal properties than the nitro cellulose which is highly praised? Please can you talk about this and go into detail. I am aware french polish is primarily used on acoustic intruments can you please go into detail. Please advise many thanks!
@vedranradonja85103 жыл бұрын
Hello, your video is great. But I have a guestion. Is a guitar playable at all if it is not intonated, if guitar does not have total intonation. For example, if we have optimal action and guitar is in tune in open string position, is that enough, or we need that also in 12th fret? Thanks a lot.
@peteroberg12723 жыл бұрын
It's a good question. Not only does the fret placement have to be accurate, but the saddle needs to be compensated some to account for the stretch resulting from pressing the string to the fingerboard. There are numerous schools of thought about compensating, and some makers insist on compensating at the nut also. So yes, the guitar has to play accurately in the 12th position, as in every other position. A lot of factors contribute to accurate intonation in addition to compensation and correct fret placement-string tension, action height, technique. Good players will make subtle adjustments without thinking about it. If you have to think about it, then something is off.

Watching so many different techniques . . . some with shortcuts . . . May I suggest from one luthier to 'dirty' up your alcohol with a little shellac. It will lessen the chance of pulling off a layer when you are 'stretching' and 'burnishing.'

too complicated and unnecessary for people to tune their guitars. get a tuning fork E=329.6 tune the E strings and the E on the 2nd fret of the 4th string first then tune the other strings to those strings. (don't use harmonics on the 7th fret)

At 4:37 yes the diagram is misleading, it depicts (with allowance for freehand drawing) two notes that are out of phase but have the same frequency. Beating is the product of frequency differential, not phase differential. I think you use the wrong terminology.
@fusion-music4 жыл бұрын
Yes, you are correct, but he subtly hinted that the diagram was simplistic and wasn't reality, but he still means "beating." He is referring to frequency differential, but trying to keep a complex subject fairly simple. I think most beginners would be lost with this. But its a great video.
