Harley Benton CPT-20 Reviews

The hell should i say more?

It works, it's precise, it's a good quality build and it's affordable. I mean, what else you need to know? Pro: The light of the panel is bright so you can use it also under the sun. Cons: the switch, a little bit sturdy. But hey my immerse reverberator 250€ pedals has the same problem so....... Really good tiny thing! Well done!

Better than expensive alternatives

Works a charm, fits nicely on my pedal board and can't argue with the price. Highly recommended.

Nice tuner but weak switch

Good tuner for the money. The lights are extremely bright, almost blinding in a low light environment. The switch started acting up after a few months of use, but what can you expect from a 20 euro pedal?

Red "flat" lamp is to bright and makes reading display impossible. You see are out of tune but you don't know how much. Orange adhesive tape did the job. It was easy fix therefore all stars given

Great price and better than rocking with no tuner.

very good

red light little bit blinding but can be handled with some tape on top of it but works very good

really well made and good priced tuner pedal i have put it onto a harley benton spaceship 50c pedal board with a full size overdrive pedal and noise gate pedal and pedal board size wha pedal and a micro delay pedal if i had got a full size tuner pedal it would have not fitted my pedal board that is why i got this micro tuner pedal

Perfect

It's accurate, easy to see and use. Can't ask for anything else, really recommend this tuner to everyone

No reason to buy an expensive tuner when there is this one

lovely design, great screen, pretty good tuner.

I mean it's not the best I ever had but for the price, it's unbeatable.

Very solid built, big screen, great accuracy

Cheap and Cheerful

For the price of the pedal it performs very well and has a true bypass, very impressed

Good but,,

Product seems to have a very bad buzz/hum.. like a bad earth. Tried everything without opening the unit itself to find a solution but gave up in the end..

It's OK for home use or practice but not for live situations as the noise is constant

Good enough for such a cheap price!

The button is not very smooth. Pressing from a wrong angle may not switch on the tuner sometimes. It’s respond time is a bit slow, it shows changes around 1 second after I pluck a string.

It is a super accurate tuner though.

Compact, but too bright, and NOT TRUE BYPASS!

The CTP-20 is a really compact tuner, it sits nicely on compact pedalboards for maximum space efficiency, also the tuning is alright although you can see that there's some delay between playing and displaying the note. On the really bad side tho there's two main factors: the three LEDs are too damn bright and make it impossible to see the dimmed blue display with the note and the "needle" to precisely tune your instrument, and most importantly the pedal is not actually true bypass! It distorts the sound (A LOT) when in bypass, therefore making this pedal useless since a tuner is usually the FIRST pedal in an FX chain!

Do not get this unless you wanna throw 18€ in the thrash or if you wanna spend 8 hours trying to find where the issue is in your pedalboard, only to find that it was this fake true bypass pedal.

Don't forget the power supply!

Does its job well, looks nice. Don't be like me and gloss over the description, power supply is not included!

Price is unbelievable.

Does the job. Don't mind the bright display.

Very good!

Sturdy footswitch, accurate tuning and feels very well built. Absolutely can’t complain especially for the price! One star deducted due to the brightness of the indicator light literally burning out my retinas, but that was solved with a couple layers of masking tape!

Great price-qualiity

Great bypass feature, great built quality, I would however like to see a power cable included.

good enough

I use it to tune modular oscillators , it works fine but sometimes it fails to identify the key on lower frequencies, but that ok, after all, its not designed for this purpose. Too bad it doesn't run on batteries.

Cheap, accurate tuner.

Bought this to put at the start of my pedal board. This is a sturdy tuner and doesn't take up much space on your board. Lights are very bright, even in dark situations. Handy tip - put some tape over the red lights so you don't go blind! Overall, it's great for what you need, why spend a fortune on expensive tuners that do the exact same thing?

Nothing special

Ordinary tuner, accurate tuning, good for the price.
