Hi dr-p...

We have a friend with perfect pitch - based on memorizing middle C with A=440 tuning. She cannot stay in the room with a guitar which is tuned to itself, but not in tune with A=440.

I'm not sure all perfect pitch is perfect…

Not sure all those episodes of guitar tuned to a piano, or tuning fork were all that great. And the pianos which had not been tuned (which we tuned to) were pretty interesting too. Most of us adjusted...
