ambient Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 I like the look of this - [url="http://www.tcelectronic.com/polytune-clip/?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=TCE+MI+NEWS+PolyTune+Clip&utm_content=TCE+MI+NEWS+PolyTune+Clip+CID_aa83de10646edde5fbd05acb27cb58ea&utm_source=Campaign%20Monitor&utm_term=PolyTune%20Clip"]http://www.tcelectronic.com/polytune-clip/?utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=TCE+MI+NEWS+PolyTune+Clip&utm_content=TCE+MI+NEWS+PolyTune+Clip+CID_aa83de10646edde5fbd05acb27cb58ea&utm_source=Campaign%20Monitor&utm_term=PolyTune%20Clip[/url] Apparently it'll be about £39.

DiceSociety Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 Looks really good. Just ordered one from Gak for £35, couldn't resist! Quote

ambient Posted June 17, 2015 Author Posted June 17, 2015 In fact I don't think they are out yet, it says "available to order", doesn't say they're in stock. Quote
DiceSociety Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 Here you go... http://www.gak.co.uk/en/tc-electronic-polytune-clip-clip-on-guitar-tuner/117777 Quote
DiceSociety Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 Yep, good point, I must admit I didn't really notice that. Well I've ordered one anyway. I'll let you know when it's processed and I get a delivery date. Quote

ikay Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 The blurb only makes a passing reference to bass, anyone know if it goes down to a low B? Quote
DiceSociety Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 Yeah , the video says it works on a lo B. ;-) [url="http://www.gak.co.uk/en/tc-electronic-polytune-clip-clip-on-guitar-tuner/117777"]http://www.gak.co.uk...ar-tuner/117777[/url] Quote
CamdenRob Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 wow a clip on tuner that actually works... I've ordered stuff shown on GAK as "avalable to order" in the past and it's taken months. I'll wait until they are actually in stock. Quote
fretmeister Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 If it works on the Low B then I'll have one. None of the others do. At least not properly. Quote

dannybuoy Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 Anyone else read the thread title and thought someone had uploaded a clip of the Polytune? To be fair it does make some electronic noise when active and using a daisy chain power supply. I could make a clip if you like. Quote
dannybuoy Posted June 17, 2015 Posted June 17, 2015 My mini noir works perfect on the low B - just not in polyphonic mode, but none of the others work in polyphonic mode on bass either on the mini. Quote
bssgrl Posted June 18, 2015 Posted June 18, 2015 Polytune clip is out in July - I tweeted TC Electronic. Ordered mine from PMT though. Quote
CamdenRob Posted June 18, 2015 Posted June 18, 2015 I really hope this actually works... I have a cheapo fender one and it's crap. Being able to ditch the TU3 would be a bonus in my never-ending quest to carry less stuff. Quote
CamdenRob Posted June 23, 2015 Posted June 23, 2015 Just pre-ordered one of these from GAK... No idea when it'll turn up but looking forward to seeing if it actually works. Quote

That aside, it's a bit pricey given that the Korg clip on (and the tiny one from Planet Waves) come in at under £15...? Quote

[/quote] Are they any good though? I have a Fender one and it's rubbish... it doesn't pick up low B and it's interpretation of "in tune" is dubious at best. Quote

[/quote] Good point, they're both fine for standard 4 string and drop D (when I compare against a Polytune stomp) but I can't say for a low B. If the TC does accurate low B then I can see how the price can be justified. In any case, it looks a lot better than other clips, but I'm a TC fan anyway. steve Quote

allighatt0r Posted June 23, 2015 Posted June 23, 2015 I have the classic, original polytune. I love the strobe effect tuner, really fast to use and accurate too. This thing looks like a beauty, I think I'll get one for my mandolin... Quote
CamdenRob Posted June 23, 2015 Posted June 23, 2015 [quote name='ped' timestamp='1435067713' post='2805071'] I'm getting one soon from TC to review [/quote] Good stuff... I maybe should have waited for your review before ordering one Quote
