I just got my brand new Carter(most requested setup), and am curious if anyone has the pitches worked out for JI.

Dave, you can go with what Rick's listed, he knows what he's talking about.

For additional info, see Jeff Newman's tuning charts by clicking on the link below - a lot of folks use this setup. At the very least it makes an excellent startint point.

I always thought "Just Intonation" means "tuning by ear"... I really believe it is a valuable learning experience to make up your own tuning chart. I never was satisfied with my tuning until I did. Check out the thread "? to David Spires" he says it very well, too.
