My fiddle group performs on stage at an outdoors market event tonite. I tired of winding my Gruen day/date, and it was time for a change to something I didn’t have to wind, and with a bit of “bling”. So my Accutron Spaceview from 1966 will fill the bill. (It hums at C-natural, so it is NO help in tuning my fiddle!)

Love this! Is it a perfect C?

The Accutron pitch is 360 hertz. Perhaps you can tell me what the pitch is for C-natural. In any event, using the Accutron to tune a violin doesn’t work.

We went to the Balloon Story exhibit (NYC 63rd St and Park Ave). Speedmaster was appropriate for the space theme portion. Great event for kids so highly recommended if you have young kids and in the area. My daughter loved the ball pit.
