RE: [Harp-L] Special 20 Tunning

["John Balding" <John.Balding@xxxxxxxxx>]

A440, "compromised" tuning, same as the Marine Band. In fact the SP20
uses the MB reed plates; hence the cover plate etching: "Special 20
Marine Band".
The compromised tuning means that it is tuned somewhere between "Just"
intonation and "Equal Temperament".

Hope this helps,

Hi All
    Can someone tell me what tuning Special 20s are tuned to? Is it 442?

Thanks
