Save your money

A good idea, implemented very poorly. It's only able to complete tuning on half my guitars, and the ones it does manage it doesn't get right. I still have to have a regular tuner connected to fix up the tuning after the Roadie is done, because it's so far off on several strings every time. It's faster to just do the whole thing manually.

For the ones it doesn't manage to tune at all, it gives misleading errors. E.g. it will tell you that you have it on the wrong string, when the real problem is that it uses so little torque for smaller adjustments that it's not always able to turn the peg on cheaper tuners (e.g. my brand new PRS SE). Considering the age of this product, if it was fixable in software they would have done it by now, so they presumably neglected to include hardware to detect if the motor is turning.

Unless you're very lucky and only use guitars it's able to tune, and don't care much about accuracy, this is pretty much a very expensive string winding tool.

Solid build, battery lasts a long time, tunes accurately and quick.

Best feature is that you can create your own tunings and store them on the unit...

I like it and I soon became too lazy to tune manually :p

Not perfect but good

I am happy with the device, it works better on some tuners than others.

Not good at all !

Quality is there I think in terms of built solidity. But handling the tuner while using on a guitar is a joke. THe tuner told me my guitar was tuned, and when I used a simple bos tuner it was far from the 440Hz, way below !

I'd rather spend 100 Euros more and get Tronical G-Force instaled on my guitar.

Very Disappointed

Buen producto con limitaciones

Incluso en el modo de PRECISIÓN no es tan preciso como un pedal (siempre puedes hacer un poco de fine-tunning si necesitas una afinación perfecta) pero es súper-cómodo poder subir o bajar la afinación en un momento y sin esfuerzo.

Funciona francamente mal cuando se quiere utilizar para cambiar las cuerdas.

La UI tanto del Roadie como la App es ciertamente mejorable. Añade mucha fricción innecesaria.

Love it, like magic
