Maybe if you buy a more expensive bass, you won't have so much of a tuning problem.

I Haven't got a tuning 'problem' i just need a tuner pedal; Have you had any experience with either of these pedals?

IME - you get what you pay for.
I recently upgraded by 25 yr old gig tuner to the Korg Pitchblack - was $60 on sale.
I also have this "cheap" one (Fender FT004)- which works great - until you get down to a low "B".
If you want cheap, I'd go with that. Handles bass, guitar and other standard tunings

I kind of wanted one with a bypass output, and narrowed it down to PT-01 or TU300

Well, he is looking for a tuner for a cheap bass. I figured that was the problem.

Monoprice. It's the same as the GFS GT-90, which is basically a rebranded Pitchblack from what I've heard. I have one and it doesn't track my low B when I tune it down to Ab, but it tunes my four-strings and guitars no problem.

Been using Pitch Blacks for years... Only thing I don't love, is reading them in the sun. I'll probably move to the Turbo Sonic this festival season. Cheap tuner ? Kinda like a cheap lawyer or accountant. I'll pass...

I don't have either of those, but I have an Fzone clip on tuner that is brilliant,has an inbuilt rechargeable via usb battery and I haven't had to recharge it in over a year. I use it once a week or so. I can vouch for the quality of this brand . That pedal of theirs looks pretty darn good,at that price you can't go wrong imho

Uh ... you heard wrong. They don't look alike, don't function alike. Two different animals entirely.

You are correct. The Joyo tuner is a rebranded pitchblack. My mistake.

I'm still a fan of my GT90 though, minus the songs I have to tune to Ab for.

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed] or Behringer TU300 for a cheap bass tuner?

Of the two, I would go with the Behringer. It looks like it's more sturdy. I can't comment on their accuracy as I have never used either one. I have a [Invalid or Expired Link Removed], but they are much more expensive than what you are looking for.
