As far as i know, yes, 440Hz yung parang standard. My pitchblack is set to 440Hz, my old Ibanez MU40 was 440Hz, the Zoom G7.1ut's tuner was set at 440 Hz.  :wink:

Got this from teh internetz.

A-440 Tuning Reference - this is the industry standard for tuning modern instruments. The "A" stands for an A note, and 440 refers to the speed of the vibration that leads to what we consider a perfect A note. The reason is that all sound is vibration, and the speed of these vibrations produces the pitch of the sound. Frequency (or vibration speed) is commonly referred to as Hertz, or Hz. So when something vibrates at a speed of 440hz, it will produce a standard A note. You can use this reference tone to tune your instrument with.

nope.. if you want to tune to Eb.. simply detune/turn your machine heads and wait for the Eb not to appear on the tuner.. same goes with the other strings.. just tune them half step down.. still at 440Hz..
