100% satisfied

Best item in my boss pedal-baord. In live performances, I only take a rapid look to tune the guitar. If you purchase this item, don't forget to switch off other pedals connected an plce it first of the line (in my opinion)

Great tuner

If you are searching for probably the most accurate tuner with the lowest price you are in the right place.

It works fine as silencer for your pedal board and allows you to drop the key of each note to tune your guitar in unconventional ways.

Beated just by his older brother the waza one!

Cockroaches and Boss pedals?

To be honest, I'm not sure what to say about this item. I assume you are all familiar with the "cockroaches and the Boss pedals" story which, speaks volumes but, I don't need to repeat it, do I? The same goes for the reason(s) why a Boss tuner should be the first pedal in the signal path on your pedal board (pretty much, although there are a few exceptions); so no point going over that again. So, what can I say?; other than: o1/ It's a Boss (say no more, right?), o2/ For me, the TU-3 made sense (although there are other models), o3/ It works for 6-string guitars as well as 4 and 5 string basses, o4/ It does lots of other stuff too; but you know all that, right. Hence, I can only tell you what you already know: If you need a tuner, buy a Boss.

PS: I can't actually verify the cockroach story, but I am building myself an igloo out of Boss pedals so, when the time comes ... well, I guess, all my friends will be cockroaches ... perhaps I should rethink that.

Clear and concise

Love the legibility and the way you can brighten the display for daylight street playing.

Classical tuner, simple and precise. All what you need. Boss quality.

Fast, quick and reliable tuner for electric bass guitar, certainly an upgrade over clip-on tuners. Very happy with the product. Allows you to mute your output while tuning, so it is practically very useful.

Perfect tuner - easy to use, and with its functionality I use it as a mute while changing guitars.

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Rugged and reliable.

Good product overall

In general a good product, but as it happens with many tuners, it is not spot on in the high strings. I'm very satisfied with the quality it delivers for the price.

perfect

I have already known this tuner, I have read and heard just good things about it. I use it on my pedalboard. The range of the display is enough, I have good eyes to see it. One of my guitar is tuned A drop, and there is no problem with it, the tuner can catch it easily. Previously I use a Behringer rack tuner, but it was not as much sensitive as this Boss pedal is. So, the legends are true, this is a great tuner!

Superbe Quality

Really great buddy for gigs or show. Perfect tuner.

I suggest to do not forget to bay the electric plug because the battery last very fast.

Nothing much to say, a quality that we expect from Boss products is there, does it's job perfectly.

Top Tuner and Power Supply

This pedal make the trick. It provides the tuner option, of course and it serves as power supply as well, if you have a Daisy Cable.

100% recommended!

A must have

Every guitar player needs one of these on their pedal board. To keep your guitar in tune its crucial and this pedal help you to do that job pretty accurately.

If you don't have a tuner yet, go for it!
