Daddario PW-CT-13 Micro Universal Tuner Reviews

handy little tuner, particularly for double bass

Bought this for my double bass and it works really well.

Tuning is fast and accurate on double bass, not all tuners work well on the lowest frequencies.

The feature set is basic as you would expect from a small tuner, it does what it needs to do and it does it well.

So small and flexible I can just leave it on my bridge all the time, it doesn't get in the way for playing or transport.

I recommend it

It works great, but sometimes with the higher strings it gets confused with the b and register it as e until it buzzes for a few seconds, then gets back to the actual string. But as a beginner, it's still really handy!

Daddario PW-CT-13 Micro Universal Tuner

This is a small but practical tuner, easy to use and accurate.

It is basically the same tiny (L:32mm x B:14mm x D:12mm) chromatic unit as the Daddario PW-CT-12 Micro Headstock Tuner, but has a more substantial clip, with soft-grip lining, which better suits most headstock designs, and full 360° adjustment, for optimum line-of-sight, on front or back of headstock.

The display (17mm x 7mm) shows the detected note, colour-coded red for out-of-tune, amber for near-in-tune and green for in-tune. Response on a mandolin or guitar is instant, with only minimal lag on a bass.
