Monoprice Chromatic Pedal Tuner - Black, Normal & True-Bypass Outputs, Easy to Tune Your Bass & Guitars - Stage Right Series

I have many styles of guitar tuners from hand held to clip on to pedalboard mount and they range in price from $10 to $100. Of all that I have, the one (actually I have two) that I trust for total tuning accuracy are my Monoprice tuners. I cringe to think how much I invested in others (i.e. TC, Korg, Digtech) and these value priced units are the ones I trust the most. The fact that they are easy to see and react quickly are just an extra bonus. Great product that is totally accurate at an awesome price!

I bought a cheap tuner on here to get my pedalboard going, but it was slow, like painfully slow. This unit has a large, bright display that's easy to see in any light. It's very easy to use and it's super fast and very responsive. It doesn't hesitate when transitioning from string to string like many tuners do. The dual output is nice as well as an actual battery (Included!!!) for use on the bench without a power cord. I can't recommend this enough. I even bought my friend one for Christmas.

This is a cheap but well functioning tuner.The display is large and bright.It appears to be highly accurate also.It can take a battery,which seems rare anymore....as most manufacturers make these without battery capability in order to sell an adaptor for an extra 10 bucks,unless you are using a powered soundboard.I put in an alkaline battery 2 weeks ago and its still powering up nicely.I don't understand tuning for flats per the 'flat' button,so I don't use it.A star off as the battery is a bear to put in,tight fit.Watch how you take the battery cover off,and don't get it backwards or upside down when you put it back on.I find this to be a worthy purchase,works as it should and I'm quite happy with it.

1st one didn't work. Would not turn on. Got replacement next day. Works perfectly. Big easy to see numbers. Quick response. Seems accurate compared to several other tuners. Would be a good buy at twice the price. Buy it.

Stopped working after about 6 months use. Maybe 30 gigs. I figure it's the footswitch, but since it's soldered onto the motherboard inside there is not much point in trying to replace it. And I have not been hard on it. Just know if you get one that you're paying ~75 cents a gig to tune up before it croaks. While it was working it was fine for my purposes. My volume pedal has a tuner out, so I can just turn down and hit the switch on the tuner. Nice and bright so even in the sun you're ok. I just turn it on when I need it, to preserve battery. Since I play bass, I don't need to tune as often as guitarists - maybe at the start of each set.

I am a music teacher and use my guitar in class almost daily. I was initially impressed by this tuner. However, after less than 2 months of use, it stopped working altogether. I thought it was the battery, so I tried 3 different brand new 9v batteries. None worked. So then I tried a 9v power adapter cable.... did not work. Contacted Amazon, who said it was past their return window, but the product should be warranted through monoprice and to contact their customer service. Just so you know, Monoprice advertises great customer service....... but they do not supply any links or information as to how to contact that customer service. So I guess this is where marketing kicks in. If the number of people who actually figure out how to contact them is so low, then sure they can have a high percentage of positive customer service...?.... I wonder how it would affect the customer service aspect if the contact information was readily available????? Thanks to Amazon themselves for making this issue right and providing a solution outside monoprice. FYI, other than writing my name on the bottom with a sharpie, this tuner still looks brand new with zero scratches or dings at all! Never dropped, and always used with care. I honestly can not figure out why it would have quit working like it did. Yes it was used steadily for 2 months, but it was well taken care of. This is disappointing for how fast and accurately it worked. I actually really liked this thing had it not died for no reason.

This tuner is well made. No concerns about the build quality. Good features. What stands out is the display, which is awesome. I've had several other big brand tuners that cost 4X - 6X as much as this one and this is the best display I've ever had on a tuner. It looks much better in person than the photos. It seems to be as accurate as anything else I've used. It reads quickly and doesn't bounce around. No issues reading my 5 string bass. I do not have the issue with the power supply plug not going in all the way as another reviewer stated and I also do not have any audible popping when engaging or disengaging. The only things I don't love are the rubber feet on the bottom making it difficult to put velcro on, but I managed to get enough contact to make it work without removing the feet. I also prefer the power supply plug on the top vs the side, but that's not a big deal either. This is a no Brainerd, it's unbelievable at this price point.

Overall, this is a great value as a pedal tuner. It works ... it could just work a little better. Here are the pros -Very bright and easy to read display -Two outputs: one that mutes when tuning, another always-on output -Can be powered by AC adapter or 9V battery The cons -It's not the most accurate. There's a distinctive "pause" in the meter when you are in tune where you can move your tuning pegs a decent amount before it shows sharp or flat. It's not egregious but it's noticeable. And you can hear that your guitar is not as in tune compared with other, more expensive tuners. -It's slow. When you strike a note, it takes awhile -- I dunno, maybe 500ms -- before there is a response on the meter. Overall, though, for the price, it's great in a pinch. Would I use this tuner in the studio? Absolutely not. Would I use it for bedroom practice, or maybe even a backyard session with friends? Sure. Oh, one thing I wanted to add. I see some reviewers here touting its ability to show you in tune quicker than other pedals. That is a BAD thing. Think about it: If this pedal says you're in tune while another tells you it's not, that probably just means that other tuner is more accurate -- NOT that this Monoprice tuner is quicker. Just something to keep in mind. I like a tuner to be responsive, as in it picks up your note quickly, but I don't care how quickly it shows me in tune -- that's my job to get it there. I don't mind if it takes long, that just means it's more accurate. Probably the most accurate tuner I've ever used is the one that comes with the Eventide H9. It shows your status down to the cent, and it can take forever to get every string in tune, but when you're done ... perfection!

Chassi de metal, bem construído. Boa precisão na afinação. Possui duas saídas (mute e bypass), o que e bem interessante e funcional. Ponto negativo é a entrada de bateria na base, o que dificulta a colocação de velcro. Ótimo custo/beneficio.

Works just fine as a tuner and has the advantage of using an internal 9 Vdc battery, which can be very handy. Added bonus is a second always-on output so you get a switchable output splitter into the bargain. This is the second unit I have bought, one for each guitar case. EDIT: Does _not_ work with a TRS cord--the magical off-until-cord-plugged-in function requires a basic TS 6.35 mm connector. This drove me mad at one gig and I ended up using a tuning fork until I traced the problem to the type of connector cord I was using. Otherwise, still a big fan of this tuner.

It's a very good accurate tuner

Cumple muy bien su función y tiene rápida respuesta. Además su salida de bypass y funciones para modificar el tono y escala de afinación son un extra muy bien agregado.

Very reliable product. This item is compatible for guitars and even 6 stringed basses. Go ahead buy this if you are in need of a tuner.
