Ever tuned your guitar with a tuner and thought it still sounded dissonant? Well...

I thought it was interesting in any case.

I saw this the other day. This can lead you down a rabbit hole if you aren't careful. I used to play in a band with a guy who drove us nuts with this type of stuff, I was glad my ears weren't as fine tuned as his. The problem was we were recording in a studio on the clock, and couldn't get the song to sound right after he started tuning stuff a little off for his own ear...it made all the overdubs seem off, and certain chords were clashing. I come from the school of a little out of tune is not that big of a deal until you start obsessing on it, and than you start to go crazy :D
