Korg AW-1 Compact Clip-On Chromatic String and Wind Tuner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I think the other reviewers went way overboard in their crucifixion of this tuner.Yes, I admit the lack of the backlight is a little bothersome from time to time.However, this is overall a great tuner.I play bluegrass fiddle and this is the most convenient tuner EVER to attach to your fiddle.I use this tuner in jam sessions because when you are playing outside in South Georgia, the environment wreaks havoc on your intonation.

As you can imagine, many times these situations are poorly lit at best and I have had no trouble using this tuner.Once again, a backlight would be great, but even under very dim lighting, I have been able to read it.

I like it.It's small enough to fit in my case or my pocket.It's very accurate and easy to use.When clipped to my fiddle, it is not affected by the other instrument noise at all. I can be sitting next to a banjo picker on one side and a stand up bass on the other and still tune-up without any problem.Once agian, the best part is that it is so easy to attach to my fiddle--the best one yet as far as I'm concerned, and I own several tuners.

I discovered this tuner because we stopped by a music store to try out guitars (my husband is a collector/picker).The sales people were using this tuner.I had never seen one, so I asked about it.They said it was the easiest to move from instrument to instrument, always accurate and very compact.And they had an entire case of tuners and out of all of them, they chose to use this one.I tried it out and bought it on the spot.

So don't be so quick to dismiss this tuner.I have one and I love it.Wouldn't think of returning it.In fact, I'm about to buy a second one as a gift for the guy who works on all my fiddles.
