This shows that you can tune the 4th string without plucking. If your 3 unison strings are cleanly in tune, you can clearly hear the 4th string by playing the key.
Does it need to be corrected often to maintain that octave shimmer? I’m guessing the octave string stops working as soon as that or any of the unisons drops in pitch?
Ah sorry this is one where they all have the same pitch. Tuned one yesterday where most of them were an octave up. Loved the rich sound but felt like it would not last very long no matter how stable the tuning since it needed to be so exact for the octave to resonate.
Isto é perfeito 🙏
Thanks. Is this BKB tip?
