It has a hard time picking up the vibrations from the E and A string, but it works better with the D and G string. Works really well on my electric and acoustic guitars. Maybe some day they'll make one exclusively for bass!

Went and picked up a Korg CA-1 (you can use the speaker or plug it in direct). Works GREAT and the price is cheap! (check eBay unless you're in a hurry - Guitar Center had the CA-1 on sale last week under $20; not sure about now.

You have to do this for a low B string even on some tuners made for bass. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
