Before now, we've always taken for granted exactly what pitch was associated with each note. We tuned our open strings with our tuner and assumed our frets were spaced correctly to give us the desired pitches. However, this is a much deeper subject. There are many different '''''Tuning Systems''''' that define which fundamental pitches belong to each note, changing how chords and melodies sound.
