Default Stage Bass Tuner

What's the best chromatic Tuner that can easily handle low B even low A without jumping around. It would also be nice if it wwould light up for stage. It doesn't need to be true bypass cause I have a tuner out.

the "BEST" chromatic stage tuner: Peterson StroboStomp.

One that'll work and do the job: Boss TU-2

I was gonna say TU-2 but I've never tried to tune to low A. That's low!

Yeah Guess i should have said the best stage tuner that will work well at the lowest price. As far as the low A goes a lot of hip-hop, R&B, gospel players detune there basses a step extra low. I've done it and it can be cool but it's hard to get it in tune.

i also vote for the Peterson StroboStomp; it may be expensive, but peterson makes a great and accurate tuner that will last for a while.
