barry021574 Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Anyone got a recommendation for a mini tuner? It needs to be small to fit into a gap on my board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CameronJ Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Find a used Polytune mini and don’t look back. They can be had for around £50ish on the used market I think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
la bam Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 I use a 'snark'. Costs about £15. Just clips on to your bass. I was dubious, but theyre very very good. When not in use just put in bass case. Theyre the size of a small watch face. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gs_triumph Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 I've tried a couple of cheaper mini tuners... Ebay style things. They perform pretty well but I got a polytune mini and have to say it is more accurate and just feels better built. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xgsjx Posted January 13, 2018 Share Posted January 13, 2018 Polytune is a great pedal. Another good cheap option is the Korg Pitchblack Poly. Fairly small & about £50 new. There's also the Pitchblack Mini for @ £55. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ceebass Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 I've got Mooer rip-off of the Polytune. It's not quite as pretty, but it is very accurate and cheap! I think it was about £40 . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barry021574 Posted January 14, 2018 Author Share Posted January 14, 2018 Thanks for the advice, everyone. I don’t think I need a polytuner as there are only 4 strings anyway. I’m most interested in small size, clear display and accuracy. The Pitchblack mini looks good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CameronJ Posted January 14, 2018 Share Posted January 14, 2018 I never actually use my Polytune in poly mode. It’s just an excellent tuner all round. Super clear, bright display and accurate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
barry021574 Posted January 15, 2018 Author Share Posted January 15, 2018 Thanks again, everyone. Your comments were really useful. There’s a Korg Pitchblack Mini on sale here on BC, so I’ve bought that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
