Why 440Hz tuning?

This is a very interesting video that may answer a lot of questions and I believe everyone should see this video.

FYI I tune my guitar to 432Hz. You might want to try tuning a guitar to 432Hz and listen to how it sounds to your ears.

I got lost , I was watching it. Forgot where I left. Not going to watch it again.
Propaganda? Oh my, I will try it.

I’m annoyed that my most accessible tuner does not support 432Hz…I believe it to be more “French” in limitations…435Hz is as low as it goes iirc.

My tuner does allow 432Hz. I have it packed up at the moment or I'd mention the brand. I have found this to sound pleasent and not out of tune.

I don’t pay attention to “the dark reasoning” behind anything, because it’s probably bunk. This guy wants me to believe that: 1. There’s a musical standard that exists without humans, and 2. 440A is a Nazi plot. Uuuhhh… OK.

I occasionally tune my Taylor acoustic to 432. It does sound pleasant. It's not something I pursue because I would need to retune when I get together with other people. I might tune my archtop to that though to reduce the stress on the neck and body of a 90+ year old guitar.

Welcome to the tuning rabbit hole ha ha ha....

I do like 432 a little better.
