Can't go wrong for the price

Seriously accurate (I checked mine using my keyboard, guitars (3) and bass - spot on every time). It CAN be used on a violin but it's a tad fiddly (pun intended) when positioned on (any of) the pegs - still works fine though. Recommended.

Great for a banjo!

Nope.

It's 2024 and this device does not "auto off". Buy yourself a huge pack of batteries!!

Nice tuner

I mean, I don't know what to saty. Your tuner doesn't need to do backflip etc. Tunes guitar, doesn't breaks in three months

Mostly works

Overall good quality. However, I use this Tuner primarily on a bass, and even though I have the "Bass" mode selected, it can't quite well detect the keys of open strings, instead I have to do a harmonic on the 12th fret, then it works really well. The tuner works well on a guitar. So if you're a bassist, you just need to know of this 12th fret trick to make best use of this tuner.

Works, but not able to recognize E-string

Not able to detect E string on guitar and bass guitar :(

Better than many say about digital tunes like this one...

I agree they tend not to be great at picking up sound from the neck head, but I found it works well if you peg-it onto the 3 was switch!

Yes, try it!

I compared it with apps and in-line classic tuner and it is spot on.

Also bear in mind to let string sound for a few second if you have light strings, as they bend and stretch and go off tune while vibrating - more than heavier gauges!

Easy to use

It works as it should.

Easy to use and basic. However it broke after a few months. The plastic clip failed and also tones were not picked up correctly (checked with other similar devices)

Alright, but not perfect

Swaps between what strings it thinks are being played, but repeatedly playing the strings fixes the issue eventually. For a beginner, it works, even if a bit annoying.

Not very good

I bought this to use with my bass and Ukulele, the tuner struggles a lot to identify the pitch on both instruments. So it works poorly both for high and low frequencies.

You get what you payed for, it is cheap so it works cheaply.

I would recommend investing 10 euros more and getting a CPT-20.

4 stars for quality

The sensor is not always catching vibrations of strings a specially when the battery is not new

A great cheap tuner

The chromatic setting really is great and for less than 10€ it's a great little tuner!

Verarbeitung leider mangelhaft.

Der Deckel vom Batteriefach geht viel zu leicht und damit oft ungewollt auf.

easy to use.

easy to see in a dark stage situation. Lasted me a long time before I broke it. Easy battery replacement. I have no problem recommending it

Lightweight and easy to install, but...

Low E string is not detected on my Les Paul.

Does the job

No problems with this, it tunes accurately enough and it was included in the bundle I bought.
