Hi Ludo,

You can do the retuning without removing the plates from the comb. For the
blow reeds I use a small dremel bit that is narrower than the slot, and
support the reed underneath with a small screwdriver. (Newer GM 's have
screws holding reedplates anyway).

Pat Missin has lots of great info about tuning and Just Intonation in
particular, which is what I guess you mean by blueschord sound.

Best wishes,

Rupert Oysler
