Another option similar to Pete's suggestion that I use
is to make a chime on the fourth fret of your forth, or
low "D" string and replicate this note on the seventh
fret of your second, or high "B" string with a chime also.
Then make a chime at the 12th. fret of your 2nd, string
now that it is in tune, and replicate that at the 5th. fret of
your 5th. string Jim Warren
