A Word About Peterson Sweeteners
A “Sweetener” is a group of twelve or fewer notes, which are precisely and individually adjusted in degrees of sharpness and flatness to sweeten the tuning of
instruments using a Peterson tuner.
Many musicians are familiar with having to tweak their instrument’s tuning after using a digital tuner. Peterson’s Sweeteners make this unnecessary.
The Sweetener’s names are simply a guide; for example, the Dobro
® settings can be used for tuning any guitar to open A, D or G.
Sweeteners are available only in Peterson Tuners.
