I think I'll get one. They say the price will be around $50. That's not bad at all.

That's what Amazon is for ?

THe 0.02cent accuracy is nice but after one bend a string would probably have stretched enough to go out more than that so whatevs. This looks cool to have around for everyday tuning without looking for cables and power for the pedal tuner.

Yeah, still a hellofva lot better than the snark clip-on I'm using - I find it's 5 cents (or more) out. A bit like using a sundial to time a sports match :?

I got one a few weeks ago.

I was looking for a small tuner to leave in my case, man at shop recommended it instead (said it just got in).

Fantastic piece of kit, very happy with it! Sometimes have some annoyances with the automatic-flip function since it is sort of border-line-skew on my MH350FR (with it's very tiny headstock) but is hardly a problem - slight tilt at the hip and it goes back to where it is supposed to be. Doesn't look like it will damage the finish and it is very accurate and precise.

Know it's an old thread, just thought I'd report back, hope that helps! ?

I got one too. Its really nice, especially at rehearsals where we can pass it around (We have two between us) and so avoid the use of power supplies and floor units.

Yeah, when I play a show, I'm definitely still using my Korg Pitchblack. Apart from anything it's great to have a stomp to silence the guitar.

But since I always end up leaving my guitar plugged in, I can't keep a battery in the pitchblack. So that meant an annoying time of plugging in the power supply and the pitchblack whenever I'm practising at home. This little tuner takes away that small but irritating part of guitar playing. The super accurate tuning will be handy for recording though.

I also picked one of these up a few weeks ago.
I leave it in the case of my main guitar.

Very impressed. I'm thinking about buying another to rotate between the cases of my other guitars.
