Fully recommend this product

i have to say this is not only a good piece of kit it looks much more expensive than it actually is. It comes with a microphone pick-up as well for the acoustic guitar as. Usually the more expensive ones you have to buy that as well. The display is large and bright blue so you can see it well enough,the letters and numbers are thick black so stand out against the back drop. Probably sounds sad to get this excited over a guitar tuner but i do highly recommend this to everyone will not be disappointed and you can spend the extra money on something else.

Quality product

First of all, I bought it only for tuning. Didn't think even trying to use metronome.

After few months of using it, had a chance to teach a youngster a guitar... He got in love with the metronome.

Both of these options are great and useable, only problem I had was clip, it didn't work for me, but as I didn't use it anyway for me it wasn't anything that special.

To sum up, this is great, good quality with good features product that every guitarist could use.

Amazing

The tuner is just amazing. Especially for the price. It's well build, accurate, metronome is great, with many options and it's quite loud.

For me the only black mark is how quickly it goes to stand by mode. But this is not even close to be a deal breaker.

Brilliant little tuner

I've had this for a few years now and it really is one of the best little tuners I've ever had - beats my Korg tuner hands down, for accuracy and range of features. Great bit of kit for the money!

Brilliant little device.

I like this little device, easy to use and has a good display. I find it is easier to use than the smaller clip on tuners which can sometimes be fussy on where they are placed on the headstock.

I just place this tuner near the guitar and it locks onto the tuning very quickly.

Great practical and user-friendly tuner!!!

This tuner is a must-have for every musician and applies to pretty much every instrument possible thanks to the included clip pickup! Of course it can still be used with a standard instument cable but the clip pickup is a great add. The screen is very bright and readable, the metronome and different tempo/rhythm choices work great and the tuning is nice and accurate. Overall, I'm very pleased with this purchase!

All the tuner most people will ever need

Really great product, this one. Stable and accurate tuner, useful clip on mic provided and handy metronome for practice. Lightweight and compact with a clear display.

This is a top value product.

Highly recommended Tuner of choice

I bought this three years ago. In my music life I have been through dozens of Tuners, some of them very expensive. I go through a good lot of the clip on type because they don't seem very robust with the battery cover in particular having a tendency to break off or get lost.

Despite having Tuners that are way more expensive (Tu12s etc), I ALWAYS come back to this.

It's my tuner of choice. It has proven to be very reliable and accurate. The display is crystal clear

I always have backup batteries with me for gigs but have never needed to use them for this as they have never run out (in three years!).

I couldn't recommend this little gem highly enough

great tuner

I bought this tuner for my acoustic violin to replace the phone app I had been using.

This tuner is fast accurate and doesn't keep looking for wrong notes.

The display is large and bright, the metronome is good and it even gives you notes to tune to if you need them.

I'm amazed at its quality.

Love it

Great for beginners

I haven't used other (better) tuners so I can't really compare it, but after using it for a few weeks all I can say is that it does the job. The metronome is quite useful and the tuning process goes pretty well.

However, there are 2 things which could be improved. First of all, I was confused at first and didn't know how to use. Even though I did receive some instructions, they weren't very detailed so it took a while after getting the hang of it and knowing how to use it.

Secondly, I wish I could change the tuning. You can only use it for standard tunings, but I'd really like to try others. It seems that I'll have to use my PC for this.

Tuned in!

Well build device with everything you need to tune your instrument (not just guitar). Scale is precise enough to assure you got the right tone. When I double checked it, it was spot on, so again, quality product that meets every expectation. No real need to hunt for more pricey tuners.

Does what it says on the tin!

It has a nice matt finish, a clear screen and the viewing angle is ok. I haven't tried the mic on it yet but it works perfectly plugged into my electric. I haven't had a metronome before so I'm really happy with this tuner. Overall, good value for money.

great value for low price

I use this device for more than two years now and I am still using the first pair of batteries. My kids like the sound of the metronome and the E A D G B E example tones, so they play around with it all the time. So although the housing is made of plastic it is still fully functional and even good looking. So it is a very stable and reliable product.

The most important thing is of course the tuning. I am not using the included clip thing but only the build in Mic for my acoustic and the input jack for the electric guitar. Both is quick and accurate.

I tried to integrate it in my pedal board using the input and output jacks, but this is not really working. The sound is much worse and there is also a lot of background noise.

nevertheless, good product.

In Tune

A great device, nicely laid-out, with a large display screen, easy to operate.

The tuner is very accurate, in both MIC and vibration sensor mode, with a large uncomplicated read-out, and three L.E.D's, making tunning easy. The Metronome is also easy to operate, with large "tempo" and rhythm buttons. My only complaint is that the screen switches off after a very short period, i suppose to save the batteries (2-AAA supplied) but only with the Metronome. It also has a voulume switch, and two 1/4" jacks for "input" and "Output", very useful. Overall a good buy.

Great tuner with too many extras to mention !

As a part-time guitar and bass tutor I have relied on this this tuner at least 10 times a week, every week for almost 3 years and found that it just continues to tune a wide variety of guitars and other stringed intsruments quickly and with easily.

Used with a jack plug, it is responsive and very clear and used as a vibration tuner with bits enclosed clip, it works well for acoustic guitars too.

Further more the mentronome is great for practicing at any tempo and as it allows for different time signiatures as well, can accompany any type and style of music.
