blind pilot Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 Well for about a year I have been unsing a Behringer BTR2000 rack mount tuner, its always struggled with the A and E, more so when I drop to D, or even lower to B, but last night I used my new (to me) Boss TU-2, and I realise just how crap the Behringer was. Tuning takes no time, the notes are picked up so fast, cant belive the difference, I am happy! that is all! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WILD FROG SHOT Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 It's a simple but very effective piece of kit! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bankai Posted June 29, 2011 Share Posted June 29, 2011 DTR-1000 or DTR-2000 would probably be right up your street then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Boss TU-2 - the industry standard - just about everywhere, and with good reason, a nice reliable dependable piece of kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monckyman Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 Makes a fine mute for accoustic guitars too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThomBassmonkey Posted July 1, 2011 Share Posted July 1, 2011 If only it were true bypass. They're good pedals though, the guitarist in my old band used one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chewrocket Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I also got one recently too and it certainly kicks ass. I'v always struggled finding a tuner that 'does what it says on the tin' but the TU-2 actually does!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basses, amps, effects have come and gone but the tank like TU-2 has always been with me. Essential kit. T Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goblin Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 I thought about getting one after borrowing one and they're cracking, I just thought the display was a little small. The TU1000 has bigger display and more flashy lights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0175westwood29 Posted July 7, 2011 Share Posted July 7, 2011 i have a tu-3 even better than the 2, faster to tune, brighter led's and powers more pedals! wicked tuner! oh and due to it being boss its built like a brick s';t house! andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darkmeteor Posted July 11, 2011 Share Posted July 11, 2011 Well if someone was looking for an awesome true bypass pedal tuner, I would suggest the TC Electronics Polytune, I have it and love it, works for 4 5 and 6 strings, can tune strings individually or alltogether since it's polyphonic. The only thing I would have liked that it doesn't have is the ability to not cut the sound when the tuner is engaged Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
