5.0 out of 5 stars The Industry Standard, January 14, 2008

This review is from: BOSS TU-2 Stage Tuner

I've had the Boss Chromatic tuner for 8 years. I used it as a gigging musician for three years, and it was the one part of my rig that never failed me. It's simple to use, very durable and versatile (for both guitar and bass, and with half step and step lower tunings). Now I use it in my home studio - it's far more reliable than any other tuner I've used, gear or software.

I've worked in the radio industry for over 5 years, and I've met a large portion of the alternative and active rock bands. When they come to play in the studio, they bring a Boss Chromatic tuner. I've had many conversations with these professional musicians about how they would vouch for it as their most indispensable piece of equipment.

At $99 bucks, it might seem kind of pricey. But the rest of your effects pedals are worthless if your guitar isn't in tune. Even if you're just a beginner or a hobbyist, this is one investment you'll be pleased you made over and over again.

5.0 out of 5 stars The "Die Hard" of pedals., May 6, 2009

This tuner looks and feels just like an ordinary stomp box which is definitely its strong point. I've had this for about 9 years and it as effective and sturdy as the day I bought it. It's simple, easy to read and the ability to mute is (I think) an underrated option (for switching guitars without that feedback and popping that comes with it). I always use this for live gigs because its discreet and easy to read in dark lighting. I have a Korg tuner and a couple built into my multi-effect processors but I always use this one. Yeah a hundred bucks is kind of pricy for a stomp box tuner but look at it as an investment. I'm going on a decade with this one pedal that's seen a lot of use and day to day wear and its still going strong. If this thing ever dies (which it refuses to do!) I'll be buying another one.

This is what you need when it comes to fine tune your guitar or bass Live, on the Stage!

Rock solid casings and jacks, the LEDs are just brilliant, precise tuning.
The batteries wont die that fast. And it does not affect your tone. It's true Bypass.

5 Stars.
