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.

Good luck

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.
