The Post Your Tuner Thread!

Sign in to disble this ad
Did a quick search with no results, so here we go! I also didn't know which forum to put this in, oh wells. It's about 1:30 am and I'm bored, sue me.

Let's see 'em! Your pedal tuners, rackmount tuners, and all things tuning-related!!!

For me, it's the ever-so-simple Korg GA-30 Guitar and Bass tuner. It's the best $15 I've ever spent on musical equipment. You can go a full 2 & 1/2 steps below standard tuning, and there's a 1/4" input and built-in mic. It does everything I could possibly ask it to.




So whatcha got keeping your instrument in check?

The Boss TU12H has been with me for the last 20 years, great piece of equipment--no complaints there. I recently picked up the ST200 because I wanted to get a strobe stomp box tuner that would work as a mute (my Walkabout doesn't have one... so until now I've been using the TU12H with a Renz Mute). The ST200 fits the bill. Better than a Peterson (IMHO), and less expensive too!! How cool is that?

Somehow, I think there's going to be a lot of photos of the same equipment coming...

This guy does the job for me, love that you can split your signal with it, use it as a mute, and tune with it. You can even use it to power other pedals apparently... havent done that though.

I've got a couple...





The Sabine is great for acoustic and orchestral instruments (it has a built-in mic, and also, the little silver doohickies on the top allow you to slip it on/mount it to the bottom edge of a music stand). It also tracks *very* well.

Used the TU-12 for ages, now I've switched to this. Simple clip on that's extremely accurate, can do the fancy stuff like drop tuning, yada yada. I like the fact there's one less link in my signal chain, and, if ya clip it on your shirt, you can press it and say,...Beam me up Scotty!

Mine's a 1st gen Peterson StroboStomp:



Yango, what do you like about the ST-200 over the Strobostomp? I'd never seen that one, I'd be interested to hear about it. I like the case design - very no-nonsense!

Hey, Yvon, what's that box in the bottom right hand corner of your pedalboard? Looks homemade.

It's a Bbox. It's only a passive tone control. I like it, it's "ON" all the time. You have 5 or 6 different settings on it.

It's built by birdsong guitars.

You can see it here::

Scroll down a little bit.
