Tuner recommendations

[highwayone]

Anyone recommend a good electronic tuner? I've heard good things about the korg pitchblack and boss tu-15 but that's from people trying to sell me one so not sure! Or are they all much of a muchness? Your comments and knowledge appreciated as always.

boss tu-3, built like a tank, can power other pedal when used with a power supply! quick and acurate and a nice bright led screen!

Joyo JT-305... Pitchblack alike for £25-£30 .. As good as the tuner on my RH450.. True bypass/can power another pedal..

tc elecronic polytune also excellent.

I'm using an old Boss TU2, but the TU3 is just as good.

I'm as blind as a bat so I got a Korg DTR1000. 19" unit with a highly visible display, and, for the kind of dross I play, really unneccesarily acurate.

It's totally fab.





I've tried the Pitchblack since I got this and I can see myself using one in the furure. Highly visible - even for blindies like me. Accurate down to about 21hz, Power source, too - which is cool. And can be had for under £50.00. Bargain.

Boss TU2 works well for me. And as said, you can power another pedal from it, which is a useful feature.

bought a pitchblack in the end, a steal off the bay!

I bought one of these and it died the 2nd time I tried it. Sent it back and got a refund as they were out of stock and apparently that supplier won't be getting any more in.

It's a shame cos I liked it and when it worked it was fine. I kind of object to paying £50+ for a tuner - there must be a lot of profit in these things.

GOD, i paid £50 from andertons. Good choice although i prefered the DT-10 but it got nicked :-(

[skidder652003]

ah christ, these things are idiot proof so everyone will tell you what they're currently using is fine. So currently i am sporting a boss Tu-3 and its fine.

Tu-2 Absolute tank used for years hasnt failed me once!

Why use up valuable rack or pedalboard real estate when you could get one of these?
