  • Setting Guitar Intonation Using Your Peterson Tuner
    Setting Guitar Intonation Using Your Peterson Tuner Before you attempt to tune any stringed instrument, the intonation should be checked and, if necessary, adjusted to the correct position. If you’ve never used a Peterson tuner before, then it is almost certain that your instrument is not yet correctly intonated and will not sound its best until you address it. Now that you have a Peterson, you can achieve professional quality results with the help of the tips below, and the intonation will be the best it can be on your instrument. You’ll need your Peterson tuner, a short guitar cord, a small screwdriver and a set of new strings. Before starting, find a surface upon which to lay your guitar that is free of any objects which could damage your instrument and cover it with a towel or similar soft material. Remember to tune the guitar in the position in which you would normally play it (i.e. around your neck, supported by a strap), but adjust the bridge of the guitar after laying it on a flat surface. If you tune the guitar while it’s laying flat, gravity will affect the tension of the neck and skew the results. If you adjust the bridge while the guitar is hanging from a strap on your shoulder, there is a risk that the guitar’s finish will be damaged by the screwdriver. If possible, take the opportunity to clean the fingerboard after the old strings have been removed. New strings will stay clean and sound good a lot longer if the fingerboard is free of grime and dirt.

  • Season 6, Episode 11: Josh White Guitar Elyse Luray
    Season 6, Episode 11: Josh White Guitar Elyse Luray: In the years following World War II, in New York City’s Greenwich Village, African American guitarist Josh White takes the stage, and plays to some of the first racially mixed audiences. It’s a watershed moment. The Southern-born blues and folk singer becomes one of the earliest ambassadors of African American music to white audiences. And in the years to come – despite political controversy -- his songs will add a resonating accompaniment to the Civil Rights Movement. More than half a century later, Jeb McIntyre of Rochester Hills, Michigan, believes he has a guitar that may have once played the protest songs of this musical legend. Jeb McIntyre: I am a huge Josh White fan and I think this guitar has an important story to tell. Elyse: Hi, nice to meet you. Wow, she’s a beauty, so what’s the history of this guitar? Jeb: This guitar I believe was at a time owned by Josh White. Elyse: Jeb jumped at the chance to buy the instrument from a friend. As a child he’d seen Josh White play… and even got to know him. Jeb: My parents took me and my sister to see him at a coffeehouse and we sat right upfront and I was just enthralled with the performance. He was simply a phenomenal musician. Elyse: Jeb and his father approached White after the show, and invited him home for Easter dinner. Jeb: We were both surprised and then he became a friend of the family.
