I do. Doesn't everybody - ?
That's what you should do ... until you have a moment to re-tune.

Are you talking about having a string that's out of tune and using vibrato as a way to disguise it ? Then hell, yes biggrin.gif

So we all are guilty as charged...but in this particular case I think it's sort of respect for the listener, to keep the performance at a descent level, even if the mothernature is not on Your side smile.gif

For me it's a fact of daily guitar playing life.
You've probably noticed that most of the instruments I play are either weird (and cheap) vintage things or 'normal' tele and strat varieties. These are not known for their intonation, the Teles, archtops and cheap 60s Japanese axes have either semi or completely non adjustable bridges. Some of the guitars are better than others (intonation wise) but you're always making small 'adjustments' (or even fret/note choices) while you play ... or, just not worrying about it laugh.gif

I usually check and double check and have my guitar tech check every axe before and while gigging, so usually I don't have to deal with this, but before having a tech, well I dealt with the situation a lot of times.

Anyway, as Darius said - to me it's something that sometimes deals with the respect for the listener smile.gif Very well put!

I wonder if our kids will have that kind of problems anymore. Will all the guitars have an evertune bridge or multi-core digital system (like Peavey or Washburn did) that auto-tunes Your outputsignal, no matter what is the exact pitch of the string ?tongue.gif
