Which is more stable? Tuning up or down to pitch! Let me know what you think!

Videos look so clean in your new place 👏🏼

Thanks! Yeah it’s so much more clean and open. Loving it!

Just playing chords is one thing, but bending notes is another. The different results were subtle. The bigger result is going to be from really pulling on the strings since that has a greater chance of influencing their pitch. In addition, a tele-style bridge to eliminate any spring drift would be better (re: “more scientific”?). I’d want to see that done before buying a clear winner. All that said, I also tune up because of the logical stability it should bring. But I also have a fixed bridge, so I wonder if the math is not only more fuzzy but even altogether different w a floating bridge.

@rickyrayreid 3 месяца назад

Totally agree with ya Benjamin! I prefer fixed bridges 100% literally for the stability. A more scientific test would be like you said, maybe doing like 50-100 bends up to a specific pitch on each string would provide a more interesting result and “out of tune-ness”!

up to pitch, also start from the middle strings out since most of my life I've been playing floyds.

@rickyrayreid 3 месяца назад

Have you noticed a big difference starting from the middle versus the edge on Floyd Rose bridges? I haven’t played Floyd’s too much, except for one Jackson Dinky back in 2010 🤣 Thanks for the comment!

Imo best is tune up to pitch, do a multi step bend around the 12th fret, tune again, repeat. If you have to do it more than 2-3 times your guitar needs a setup. After that it should hold tune hreat

@rickyrayreid 3 месяца назад

Oh interesting! I haven’t thought about doing bends while tuning. I’ll give that a shot next time! Thanks!

@TomKloseMusic 3 месяца назад

I always tune up to pitch because everyone seems to have the opinion that that is the right way. Then again, sometimes I get in there quickly while playing and I don't pay any attention to whether it's up or down to pitch (can't really afford to in such short time).

@TomKloseMusic 3 месяца назад

Doesn't it also make more sense to tune up to pitch cause from playing the string tension will always lessen and they will go flat, not sharp?

@rickyrayreid 3 месяца назад

Same thought here, but maybe when it’s tuned “down” the string is at its released or lowest tension and return to that? I’m thinking the “what goes up, must come down” theory 🤣

@HeadRoaster 3 месяца назад

I think I've always heard that tuning down was bad for pitch stability.. kinda the opposite of what you showed, interestingly

@rickyrayreid 3 месяца назад

That’s what I thought too! But it makes sense to me that maybe when you “bend” the string will already be at its “longest” length and hopefully return back to that original pitch with the lowest tension. Whereas if it’s tuned “up” maybe it catches/releases one of the windings at the nut and causes it to fall out of tune. Very interesting to me!
