 (Forgive me, Hugo!)  When he plays his example of open harmonics and a fretted E chord and says "Those notes match", THEY DON'T;  I can hear that the fretted note is flat compared to the open harmonic, and vice versa, the open harmonic is sharp relative to the fretted note, very plainly with a dissonant 'beat'...  Note that he doesn't hold those notes for very long, unlike is example in "A"... There is no one solution for all keys and positions on a fretted guitar, only doing the best job at setting the intonation and tuning, and playing in tune 'by ear' with adjusted finger pressure and even picking-hand attack while playing.

This guy- Tolgahan Çoğulu- is one of the major minds behind microtonal guitar.

 

As I recall, he’s THE reason King Gizzard got into microtonal music.

Eastwood brings back the Backlunds:

I wanted a Backlund when they were a separate company and all USA made.  I wanted one when Eastwood started selling them.

 

Maybe this time around…

I immediately thought of you when I saw Hugo's post...

That first run of Eastwood Backlunds was limited to 250. It doesn't seem like they've set a limit or cutoff date on production this time, but I doubt they're going to be a regular item on the Eastwood menu.

 

Moving on...ok, it's not a guitar, it's a mandocello, courtesy of Rivolta:

There's a local 2-piece band that's mandocello and drums; here's a video:
