Harley Benton CPT-20 4-stars Reviews

Quite good for the price

Got this to use as a backup. This is not the best tuner you?ll find but for the price it?s very good. The display is quite visible and it seems sturdy enough. And true bypass. It?s actually a lot better than i would expect for this kind of money.

Simple and effective.

Nice and effective! It's small and acurate.

At this price what can you complain about

I bought this for my son to help him tune his guitar. I was a bit dubious with the price and the quality it would be.

It is housed in a nice sturdy aluminum casing, nice bright and clear display. It does not feel the most robust of pedals so I do not know how long it will last, but even if it only lasts a year or two with my son's abuse, I will be happy based on this price. A tuner for under 20¤ which keeps his sticky fingers off my PolyTune is also a good deal.

I remember buying a tuner 20 years ago which cost 5 times more which is no-where near as good. So technology has moved on since then, but cheap does not mean totally naff.

Would make a nice 'stocking filler' at Christmas for anyone with a guitar either as the main tuner or as a spare to keep in the guitar case.

Does the job.

Great value tuner, hasn't let us down at any gigs. The only con is that it does not come with a power supply so unless you order this too you can't test straight away.

I have used this tuner at practice and gigging. I found the display is easy to read under poor lighting conditions and it seems quite sturdy.

Tunes great, but feels like its going to fall apart. The dc adapter is moving all over, the box feels thin and the switch has a slack that makes you think it will fall apart.

Apart from what it "feels" like, the pedal did numerous gigs, and many many rehearsals and it still works.

Its just feels cheap enough to get you scared I guess

Great for the money

I bought this just to use at home and it is perfect. Great display and fairly accurate. Good quality and can't ask for more than that for the silly price.

Very good pedal, it is a tuner precise and small footprint, also has a great rate!

tuner that's value for the money.

purchased this to use on my pedal board as i was after something small and not to expensive and this is ideal for the job. the pedal i received is silver all around and not white as it appears in the pictures, this though is not important to me.

the bypass switch seems sturdy enough and when set to tune mode it cuts off the sound to the amplifier so it could also be used as a kill switch. there is a bright led screen that indicates the note being played with indication to whether the note is high or low to adjust the tuning, i have compared this to other tuners that i have and it seems spot on when using for standard tuning or dropped tuning.

it is all metal in construction other than the display screen and i would imagine that this thing will last for years to come.

on the down side this can only be used with a 9v power supply as there is no facility for a battery connection.

also the led lights that indicate flat and sharp notes are not in line with the metal casing, this does not affect the use but is down to the quality of the build.

summary: for what this tuner costs i think you get value for money. i would replace this with the same model if i was to loose it.

Very comfortable pedal with a good price, but there is a significant disadvantage.

When the tuner along with distortion, the sound becomes as Jack pulled out of the guitar, that is, noise, hum. We have to include the tuner only after turning off the compressor and distortion.

The screen is quite readable and bright.

Very good tuner for the price!

IMO it's better than the Boss TU-3 tuner, because boss's tuning arrow is jumping around when i'm tuning my guitar, but this tuner doesn't do that and i can tune my guitar instantly and perfectly!

- Although the LED light is very bright, i used masking tape to block it a bit, so it isn't that bad.

- The screen produces good quality picture, but the glass itself is weak and is easy to break.

+ I very like the design and it's very small.

+ the case is very good and easy to handle.

+ the screen is very good and crisp

Overall a good and simple tuning pedal.
