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.

Peterson TP-3 Tuning Pickup Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have a Boss TU-12 that I use to tune acoustic guitar, acoustic bass, mandolin and ukulele.The tuner never gave me stable readings, especially with the uke.

The TP-2 solved all of those problems.It provides a very steady reading on the tuner needle and really makes accurate tuning acoustic instruments very easy.It works pretty well on my electric guitars also!

The only down side to this pickup is that the cable is a little thin and I'm not sure how it will stand up to constant stage use.

Seiko STX1 Chromatic Clip On Tuner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I purchased this tuner locally earlier this week.Amazon would have been cheaper but I couldn't find any reviews on the web and wanted to check it out carefully before I purchased it.I love it.It does everything it is advertised to do and does it well.It picks up the signal when you pluck a string and gives a good clear identification of the note everytime.When the green light comes on you are in tune.I did experiment with the high and low ends of the green light range and there was no noticeable change in sound nor was it noticeable when using a normal mic tuner along with the Seiko for comparison (change in light color on the Seiko versus needle movement on the Sabine).

When tuning with an ensemble, it does pick up the vibration in your guitar created by other instruments while you are idle but as soon as you pluck a string it immediately responds correctly to your guitar and doesn't seem to be affected by the other instruments.

I don't usually write reviews but because there is so little out there right now about this tuner I just wanted to share.Hope this is helpful.

Korg GT3 Auto Guitar / Bass Tuner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I have used this tuner in many different places and ways, from tuning classical nylon string guitars using the built in mic to plugging in a guitar chord from acoustic electric (NYLON string) through regular metal string electrics (recommended using input jack in noisy situations without hiding in silence somewhere- often hard to do).

The fact that this tuner uses little lights instead of a phoney needle meter done with LED displays makes it much more useful in low light siturations and very easy to read. When it hits green you are in tune. If you want to tune down or up a step, no problem either. Just watch the little lights.

All around an excellent tuner for both bass and guitar, very versatile and as much as you would want to spend. It is very durable and has taken more than its share of hard living.Highly recommended.

eNote Nano Chromatic Clip-On Musical Instrument Tuner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)this tuner seems to be a little touchy and inconsistent as far as quick accurate tuning is concerned.this is in terms of when the green display lights up instead of the red. the green lights up when you're in the neighborhood, not just when you are Right On the note.i would prefer it were more discriminating about when it gives you "the green light".but it is an inexpensive tuner, so maybe it's just the "you get what you pay for" maxim. if i had it to do over again, i would probably keep looking ...

Korg GA-30 Ultra Compact Guitar and Bass Tuner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I've been playing the guitar about 45 years, acoustic, electric, and nylon string. I like Korg tuners and find them the best, particularly for the money, not only for my guitars but also for my fiddle and my banjos. They are small, sturdy, and no frills. They are accurate and inexpensive.They work easily.

This is the only real guitar tuner that I like. I have other guitar tuners that are pretty good that are not really guitar tuners but chromatic tuners with guitar settings. This is small accurate and sturdy and fits easily inside your shirt pocket or inside the small compartments in a guitar case.

It does have features for other settings which are great for alternate tunings.

Don't be fooled by the Intellitouch and other strap ons. You can't figure out all their arrows as well as the dial on Korgs and others. They are too much trouble to use especially is you are doing precision work like setting up an adjustable bridge.

The only thing is that they can be a bit unreliable if the a battery gets worn down. I usually check in new batteries every time I am going out to play some place serious.

With the discount prices you can find in shops and around the web, the only way to beat the price on these tuners is to steal one!

Product Description:
High accuracy and superb functionality have made Korg tuners the worldwide favorite. And now, the new GA-30 joins the best-selling GA series of tuners. With even more features, like a pitch reference tone and quinta-flat tuning, the GA-30 tuner packs basic functionality and convenient tuning functions into ultra-compact bodies.


High accuracy and superb functionality. Click to enlarge.
High-precision LCD needle-type meter for stable tuning.
Sound Out can produce a reference tone from the internal speaker.
An Easy-to-Use Dedicated Guitar and Bass Tuner
This dedicated guitar/bass tuner lets you select either Guitar mode or Bass mode for truly easy operation with automatically detected pitch. The wide detection range supports 7-string guitar (7B through 1E) in Guitar mode, and 6-string bass (Low-B, Hi-C) in Bass mode. A high-sensitivity mic is built-in, allowing easy and accurate tuning of acoustic guitars.
Ultra-compact Body with a "Tilt Slit"
Although the GA-30 is small, thin, and light, don't let its pocket-sized body fool you. The GA-30 can accurately tune any guitar or bass. From studio to stage, tuning is easy and convenient. The back of the unit includes a unique arc-shaped "tilt slit" that lets you insert a plastic card for use as a handy stand.
High-Precision LCD Meter
The meter section uses a LCD needle, combining the accuracy of an LCD with the easy visibility of a needle, and providing a stable display. Additional visual feedback is provided by LEDs that indicate pitch deviation.
Sound Out--Internal Speaker Provides a Reference Pitch
In addition to visual tuning via meter, the GA-30 can play reference pitches from its internal speaker (Sound Out) for tuning by ear. Each press of the Sound switch will cycle the output sound through 7B->6E->5A->4D->3G->2B->1E in Guitar mode, or LB->4E->3A->2D->1G->HC in Bass mode.
Quinta Flat Tuning mode--a World-Wide First!
The GA-30's Quinta Flat Tuning mode supports the lowered tunings used in heavy metal styles to give more weight to the sound. Until now, dedicated guitar tuners have supported a maximum of only four semitones below standard pitch, but the GA-30 gives you five steps of flatted tuning, extending as far as five semitones below standard pitch, and supporting even super-long scale guitars that are five frets longer than conventional guitars.

Korg GA-40 Large Display Guitar and Bass Tuner Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)First let me say right off that I'm a beginning guitar player. Everything I've heard and read said that I absolutely needed to learn by playing in tune. So after doing quite a bit of homework (I'm a bit over the top about researching things I buy), I settled on this unit. Now that I've been using it for a couple of months, I can say without hesitation that it was a good purchase. To tune the guitar, you simply pick each string (EADGBE - Eddie Ate Dynamite Good-Bye Eddie) and watch the gauge. Tighten or loosen the stings until the needle lines up perfectly and the green "all's well" light comes on. Very easy to use and small enough to toss in a pocket. Definitely recommended.
