I pretty much stick to JI for C6th as well as E9th. I pay particular attention to keeping the 4th stacks beat free so I tune my D strings (I have two open) to the 4th stack with the 5th and 3rd strings.

I suppose I do the majority of the pitiful amount of session work here in Seattle, so I guess Seattle also votes JI in terms of intunation in the studio.

Question Dan,

Since you tune JI on C6, I would be curious as to how do you tune your F#'s on pedal 5; and your Eb on pedal 6?

Thanks,

carl
