David Gilmour
Overview
As far back as the early 1970s, Mr. Gilmour and his band colleagues used a strobe tuner consistently. In fact, according to David Gilmour's long-time technical assistant Phil Taylor, before a massive 1974 concert in Earls Court around the time of the Dark Side of the Moon album, it was discovered that someone had forgotten to bring their ST8 Strobotuner. This precipitated a mad dash across London during rush-hour back to Britannia Row to retrieve it for the gig. Ever since, there has been no Pink Floyd or David Gilmour solo concert which didn't have one or more Peterson strobe tuners doing tuning duty on electric and acoustic guitars, his use of steel guitar also necessitates altered tempered tuning made easy with a Peterson.
David Gilmour's pursuit of musical excellence and sonic quality makes his choice of tuner very important. At Peterson, we are very humbled to count him among our users from the 1970s to the present day.
