Peterson's Proprietry GTR Temperament Benefits Standard
& 'Dropped Tuned' Guitars
Traditional
temperaments most directly apply to instruments like the
piano or organ where every note can be separately
tuned.
What
about a guitar, where the frets and intonation are
generally set up for equal temperament?
Some
improvement can, indeed, be achieved. Peterson's proprietry
GTR temperament is designed to improve the sound of musical
intervals on a standard and "drop-tuned" guitar (EADGBE or
one half-step below these) - especially the 4th and 5th
intervals. This improvement is most noticeable when playing
in overdriven mode, where the guitar's resulting
accentuated overtones normally clash when tuned in
"standard" Equal temperament. The GTR temperament makes
discrete adjustements to Equal temperament which have a
positive effect on the overall sound.
Only one solution - use a Peterson Strobe
Tuner!
