Thunderbird Club

I tuned by ear for years with guitar. But this way is quicker and easier for mid-set tuning (temp changes, brutal playing with newer strings, etc.)
but it takes me less than a second to tune an off string by ear mid song, can't do that with a tuner...don't need a Hipshot drop D either....I'm old and cheap...
