Hi everyone!

I'm thinking about exploring meantone on my renaissance and baroque guitars. At 
the moment they are in equal temperament, but I usually have my renaissance 
lute in 1/4 comma meantone and my baroque archlute in 1/6 comma (unless I'm 
doing earlier music). 

I was wondering about meantone on the two guitars, but was wondering whether 
there was any historical evidence for the use of meantone on renaissance and 
baroque guitars. Also evidence for tastini on them would be helpful! 

I have that helpful calculator for frets in various temperaments, but can't 
find anything for early guitars. Should I simply place them by ear or use 
ClearTune for placing frets in the appropriate temperaments?

Best,

Edward C. Yong
