Didn't know what forum this would go in. It's have theory/tech kinda stuff I guess.

Anyways, does anyone use temperaments to tune their guitar? I'm about to set my intonation up and my tuner is able to have different temperaments programed into it, so figured I'd explore that area a bit.

I know that the guitar is designed as an equal temperament instrument, but I know people like to sometimes use something a little different. Should I intonate using equal temperament, then tune using a different one. Or intonate AND tune with the same thing?
