I have read and heard of Emmons and others
using 440 tuning on all strings on he E9th
neck, I tried it and was wayout of tune.
Has anyone else used this 440 tuning, and how do you like it.

I believe BE tunes his 3rds (G#s) a few cents flat. It's pretty much a must in order to sound in tune (tempered) with yourself. Pedals/knees would have to be tempered also.
