Room sound out of guitar mixes

Hmm. I just did a quick Google search, as I'd recalled low E being around 80hz-ish, and I've found a Yahoo Answers post agreeing with you, and then a whole bunch of guys saying it's about 82hz.

Anyway, I've been told low B on a 7 is around 63hz or so, although it's also worth noting that since 9 times out of 10 the bass guitar will be playing the fundamental as one of its' overtimes, preserving your fundamental on a guitar isn't THAT crucial, and you can safely cut a bit above it without much damage. Take this with a grain of salt, of course, as I'm just your typical hobbyist bloke. ;)

Low E on guitar is roughly 164.8hz. Low E on bass is roughly 82.4hz.

divide those numbers by 2

Guitar actually plays 1 octave lower than written.

I'm talking about physics, not notation. 2 completely different animals.
 
I wonder why this cat hasn't posted a pic of his setup or responded back to any of the follow up posts?????
