« one of the better tuners since the tu-2! »

Published on 09/08/11 at 00:56
This is definitely one of the best tuners out there so far. First of all it's by Korg, so you know it's accurate and it's an improved version of every tuner that's been in existence so far. Also, there are no bells and whistles, which is great since almost 90% of guitarists who want tuners just want one function, to tune. It's also all black, which is great as it accentuates the LED on stage, thus making it brighter overall and more visible. It's also smaller! Smaller than other tuner pedals, which is great for space saving for your massive pedal board! You can also power other pedals through this tuner pedal if you wish, though I generally don't, it's doable with a daisy chain.

Seriously, what more does any guitar player really need in a tuner? Did i mention it's true bypass? You can also calibrate it how you want if you don't want 440hz. There's also the 4 tuning modes: full strobe, half strobe, meter and mirror. All of which are just as accurate with each other. It's also improved and I believe even more accurate than the standard tuner.

One thing to mention is the sensitivity of the tuner is also improved. Meaning when you strike the note, the tuner picks up the note a lot faster, it 'tracks' faster and sooner than regular tuners. Faster is always better!

In addition to all this it's REALLY well priced. Cheaper than a new TU-3 the last time I checked, you really can't go wrong with this tuner!
