| | | | I've got the Gibson tuner, but it's not great for bass. It might help get you in the vicinity, but nothing beats a real Pitch Black tuner. |

|  | Registered User | | Join Date: Nov 2006 Location: London, Ontario, Canada | | | Peterson. It mis-reports the E string as a B sometimes, but it still gives you an accurate reading on whether its sharp or flat.
The pitch accuracy is better than any hardware pedal tuner I've owned. With regular tuners, I find myself second-guessing the pitch lock (especially the #$@!!! Planet Waves), but the Peterson is actually better than my own ears...
I find that when I tune with the Peterson app, it seems like my bass stays in tune longer. I think it's just because you're so perfectly centred on the correct pitch, that it takes longer to drift far enough to be noticeable. |

| | | | Pitchbot. 3 dollars I believe and it works great. Honestly I believe it's better than my Ibanez pedal tuner. Most used app on my phone.
