Post Tuning
I periodically switch between Classic, MR and RMR and I have used the following tuning sheet to do that quickly. I tend to always tune at the 7th fret while holding the instrument in the normal playing position., here's the tuning "cheat sheet" that I use.

Hi Mattio,

It's a nice idea. I have one suggestion. Call it "Fret #7 (2nd inlay)", instead of 7th fret, because many instruments have the X fret and I have seen people count that as the 1st fret by mistake.
