tc electronic PolyTune Clip Tuner 5-stars Reviews
Very good quality tuner
I think this is the best tuner I ever owned. Display is very clear and is visible in every light condition. The only (little) cons is the power button, it needs to be pressed with too much energy to go on.
Best clip on tuner money can buy
I have used this tuner at every gig for the last couple of years on acoustic and electric guitar as well as bass. It is extremely accurate and very bright and the battery lasts a really long time.
It is made of high quality materials and feels and looks very premium. It is very easy to use. I usually strum my open strings to get an idea of what is in or out and then go string by string for fine tuning.
The only issue is that it sometimes recognises the low (note) E string as a B or flickers between E and B. The solution is to play the 12th fret harmonic and it recognises the E.
I would recommend this to any guitarist. This is a tuner you can trust. Even if you already have a pedal tuner, this clip on makes a great backup. Or if you have your pedal tuner on a board and don?t want to set it up for a practice, this clip on is a reliable alternative. I usually have it with me in my bag with a capo and some picks just in case I end up playing a guitar on my travels.
Highly recommended!
Reliable
Great tuner for just about any type of guitar or bass. I love mine and the batteries last very long.
Does the job
The precision is amazing, and my only complain is that even after tune every string one by one, is showing low lectures on the strumming mode.
Not a problem for me.
Another negative point is that I'm not able to find a correct spot on PRS headstocks xD but I suppose I can't blame the tuner for that.
Happy with it.
Great tuner
I have been using it for about two years. I am absolutely happy about it. It is a great tuner :-)
From the low B to guitar tuning...
Extremely practice and very accurate both with bass and guitar.
Excellent clip on
I much prefer a clip on tuner to a pedal tuner. I rarely if ever use pedals, even distortion. I've had a couple of clip on tuners before. Just cheap ones from an auction site, which have performed well enough. When this came out, I was eager to try it, to see what all the fuss was about. I've never used a tuner that checks all the strings at once, and to be honest, I still tune one string at a time with this. The display is much larger and clearer, tuning one at a time, and it's what I'm used to. To be honest, I found the all at once option a little confusing, and reverted back to my preferred method. That said, I find the tuner easy, and clear to use, and as far as I can tell, it's really accurate. I seem to hit the note quicker, and there seem to be more play on the machine heads, so it's easier to get it bang on, first time. With the cheap ones, I was going sharp, or flat, and having to detune, and go again. I don't get that with this tuner. The only slight grumble is the slightly utilitarian look of it, it's a bit plasticky looking, and it doesn't swivel, like the others I've used. These are just minor things, though, and I really like using it.
Sturdy, tiny and working.
I finally found a tuner that would stick with me. It's very robust and easy to use and as it is tiny you can hide very easily behind the guitar head for example.
Must have device for any guitarist
Cannot say much about this product - it's a tuner, it's stable and works well. Looks cool, sits stable on the headstock of the guitar.
Personally I don't use the PolyTune capability much, but I guess it works.
If I lost it I would buy a new one immediately.
Great tuner
This tuner is absolutely fantastic exept maybe for the fact that there could be a joint to rotate the tuner on the clamp, but maybe it's more durable without it and cheaper. I love it!
Very professional item
This is very professionall tuner and I used it in a lot of situations where I need to tune my instrument fast and precise. This display lighting are very beautifull and unique. Very recommended really! Thank you.
Very good tuner - even for bass guitars
After using two budget clip-on tuners (And being disappointed) I decided to invest on this device and I have not regret.
Where cheaper clip on tuners struggle even with Bass guitars E -string, this device does not have any problems in showing the tuning of my B -string on the 5 string Bass.
As a light-weight and reliable device this has become a permanent part of my gig bag.
Highly recommended.
Tuner is just a tuner? No!
Throughout last 5 years I've been using cheap guitar tuners. I decided to buy something more expensive to see if there is any difference and... I don't know why I didn't do it before.
This tuner is simply amazing, precise, fast and really easy to read LED display. Everything works as advertised so can't complain about anything really.
Also another nice feature is it came with free plugin which normally costs around $50 on their website.
I would highly recommend this tuner to everyone. Totally worth the money.
Great Tuner
Great tuner, a little bit pricer than most clip on tuners but the quality shows and proves it's worth
The best!
Used daily for over a year now with 0 issues, never needed a floor tuner thanks to this and have band members lusting after their own!!
Like father, like son
Just as fantastic as TC Electronic PolyTune tuner 2. You never get wrong with TC tuners.
Best Clip Tuner by Far
I have tried a variety of clip on tuners, and this is the best by far. Quick, accurate, good visibilty and a substantial clip make this a best in class.
Excellent tuner
Very good readability. The polyphonic tune is something that you needto get used to, but makes it all quite easy.
Simply Superb
I've had quite a number of tuners over the years, and they've varied in quality. This is absolutely superb.
I'm mainly using this tuner in a project studio which influenced my decision to get the clip version.The ability to swap quickly from headstock to headstock is far more convenient than using the floor pedal version for my current purposes. Were I playing in a live environment more, the pedal version would be a more practical choice.
The accuracy and sensitivity of this thing are unbelievable. I tend to use it in individual string mode for fine tuning, and the poly tune mode for a quick reference spot check.
I genuinely don't know how the engineers at TC Electronic have managed to produce this unit at this price point. Super performance, and amazing battery life. I won't be using anything else anytime soon.
If you're considering it, don't consider it any longer. Just buy it. You won't regret it.
Very practical!
I bought this tuner to get more place in my pedalboard. It works well very practical and very accurate! It does the job very well.
