A=432 Hz, known as Verdi's 'A' is an alternative tuning that is mathematically consistent with the universe. Music based on 432Hz transmits beneficial healing energy, because it is a pure tone of math fundamental to nature. The universal music of sacred geometry.



e: my favorite dumb pitch thing is the story that a440 was the result of goebbels decreeing all musicians in nazi germany use that standard

What? No way I am using a Nazi reference frequency.

reviews of it are hilariously along the lines of "all it does is sound like Iommi!! Doesn't do anything else!!"

It's a boring answer but I love 70s Aerosmith and that extends to their guitar sounds. The band that showed the Stones that we were perfectly capable of ripping off blues guys on this side of the pond as well.

When I say love I don't think I have any of their stuff. I need to get a copy of Toys in the Attic.

As for signature gear I don't care but I lust for one of those purple Robert Cray hardtail strats.

It's sort of hard to truly skewer in that he just made a really vague claim with nothing to substantiate it. There is no magical waveform only tubes can make tho. I'm agreeing with Shugojin's more thorough answer.
