tc electronic PolyTune Clip Tuner Reviews

Great Product

Yep Does what you need it to do

Great little thing

It can be very aqurate. Very useful that you can see all strings tuning at once. Great construction!

Very clear

Having owned (as most guitarists have) a variety of clip on tuners I find this one to be the easiest and clearest to use. Lots of functions - most of which I don't use but it makes tuning really easy and accurate.

Handy, but expensive

Poly tuning works okay, but I find I still fine tune each string by itself, so no real time gained. Less flexible with positioning than other tuners.

Accurate tuner

Simply the best and most accurate clip tuner on the market. Easy to use and durable product. No other tuner comes near this. It's an excellent product

Precision Tuning for Fretless Intonation

The TC Electronic PolyTune Clip Tuner has revolutionized my fretless bass playing experience, allowing me to achieve precise tuning and impeccable intonation like never before. One of the standout features of the PolyTune Clip Tuner is its ability to accurately detect low B string, a crucial capability for fretless bass players. As a fretless bassist, intonation is paramount, and the PolyTune Clip Tuner has become an invaluable tool in achieving spot-on intonation across the fretboard. Its intuitive interface and high-resolution display make it easy to fine-tune each note, resulting in a harmonically rich and sonically pleasing sound.

Really good clip-on tuner

I'm normaly not a big fan of clip-on tuners. I mainly play bass, and for bass those clip-ons almost never get it right. I'm pleased to say this is the first one to do so! I can tune my bass with an insane amount of precision, almost as good as with my actual tuner. Really impressed, would absolutely recommend this one to fellow bass players looking for an affordable and easy to use tuner.

Best tuner

I'm a street musician who plays under the sun a lot, the screen makes it easy to tune. The only downside it's the lid where the battery goes gets loose so you have to fix it by using a bit of paper in between

Great device -but not perfect

After tuning each string individually, the simultaneous check over all six strings never functions as expected---there is always one or two strings off.

Good tuner but struggles with low strings

I play a lot in drop B and drop A and this tuner seems to struggle with the low B and A. Other than that I can’t fault it

the best clip tuner, period.

Ive tried a bunch but this one takes the cake. Simple yet very effective and easy to read.

Very happy

Easy to use, accurate... what more do you want from it?

Really handy

It's a good tuner, does its job perfectly.

tuner

this tuner is high quality and accurate. It looks good on top of that i am really happy with it.

decent tuner, fast response time

Depending on the board, the polytune system catches better or worse. I have the impression that the A and E strings in the simultaneous tuning option slightly out of tune (low frequencies), other than that the tuner is lightning fast and very precise when used with single strings. The workmanship is rather average, the buttons are difficult to click, unfortunately, It feels cheap on the material

Top choice

The tc electronic PolyTune Clip Tuner is an incredibly convenient, fast, and lightweight way to keep your guitar in tune. I was initially torn between this model and the UniTune, but ultimately went with the PolyTune and couldn't be happier with my choice. The ability to strum all strings and instantly see any deviations from target pitch is a killer feature. The tuner's display is bright and stylish. My only wish is that the clip could be slightly larger and have more degrees of freedom, as it's difficult to adjust it for an optimal viewing angle without removing it entirely from the guitar. This can be a bit of a hassle when placing the guitar in a case, as the tuner needs to be removed and reattached each time. Overall, the PolyTune Clip Tuner is a top choice among tuners in this class.

Tuner 2nd To None

A guitar players friend.

Gig , Busk or Practice reliable and Accurate.

"Polytune when only the best is good enough !!

Be in tune

Easy to use, quick response, very accurate.

Recommend for everyone.

Too expensive for what can do correctly!

Pro: tuning individual strings works fine.

Cons:

- even though you tune individually the strings, if you strum, the tuner shows some of the string not being really in tune, specially the low E and G.

- unable to rotate in all directions. Works fine for 3+3 headstocks, but not for 6 inline. If you have to mount it on the side of the headstock, makes uncomfortable to read. It is not possible to rotate it to face you!

Fast to use

If you want to tune your guitar fast, then clip tuner is best choice. Just hook it up and you can see on the display which string is most out of tune. It is very easy to use and quality is also good. Only thing i did not find it perfectly accurate, if you really need extremely accurate tuning, then i would recommend something else instead. I find it working best on any 6-string standard tuning guitar.
