Good but not excellent

This tuner is great for instruments that resonate well such as my acoustics and ukulele. But it has trouble with electric insturments that don't resonate well in the upper register of the strings. It does quite work well on bass though. Don't buy this as a sole tuning device on electric guitar but as an addition (like I do) for live situations or on the fly adjustments.

d'Addario micro tuner

Very easy to use, the possibility to invert the screen is amazingly useful. sometimes not registering the string from the first time, but another strum always helps. all in all, long battery life, easy to take with you (just leave it clipped on), and very discreet. A must have!

Very small and discrete!

Overall a good little tuner you can hide on the backside of the headstock on your guitar or bass.

Doesn't track the low B-string on bass very well, so tune using the harmonic at the 12th fret.

Otherwise no complaints. A no brainer at this pricepoint!

Very discreet tuner!

It is very small and non intrusive, just what I needed for my spanish guitar, It's fitted behind my headstock very discretely. It works quite well but not so well if in a noisy place, overall seems to be accurate but sometimes I might have to fine tune by ear, seems that you have to find the right place in the headstock of the instrument for it to pick all the frequencies right...

The option of inverting the display is quite useful and some other similar tuners don't have it.

The visual metronome in the other hand I find it useless.

I have it for almost 8 months now, used it daily and never changed the battery yet, I'm starting to be amazed by this!

It is very good for the price as it does what is intended to with no fuzz or flashy features, I had other but they didn't lasted enough to earn a review.

Planet Waves Tuner

The Planet Waves PW-CT-12 tuner is a incredibly small Headstock Tuner. Almost the entire face of the tuner is the display, a very bright, backlit display that reads great on stage.

VERY small, light and easy

The Planet Waves Headstock tuner is some tiny thing, but it works as intended! On my acoustic Guitar it gets the tone quite fast. On my Bass it takes a (few) second(s) instead, nut it works there as well. The light is not very bright, but okay for the usual indoor use. I use it mainly to tune at the sofa at home, or backstage before a gig. For this, I don’t want to miss the little bug anymore!
