Tuner Pedal, any favorites?

[two4motion]

I'm going to be in the market for a Tuner Pedal. I see a lot of Boss TU 2's and Peterson Strobostomp2's. What about Korg's DT-10BK or or Fender's PT-100?

Thanks in advance.

tu-2.


the strobostomps are cool, but at like $300 or whatever they are... that's a pretty expensive tuner.

tu-2. built like a tank, tune's great.

if you're tuning a violin or something to that effect, i'd go with the strobostomp. in a guitar setting it's not really that needed.

I use one of those fender tuners PT-100 I believe. It works fine for me and at 45 bucks I could afford another when my first got stolen.

I'm glad to hear that, because the more I think about it, I just can't justify spending the money on the others if the PT-100 works just fine. I was video taping a band on Friday night where one guitarist had a Boss TU 2 and the other the Fender PT-100, I didn't think to ask them at the time about any pro's or cons of the two.

2 downsides to the PT-100, with conditions:

- Not the most precise tuner, but then again neither is the boss

- You need a screwdriver to get at the battery, but they do last a really long time

Thanks for the heads up, on both accounts.

Tu-2 - it might sound frivolous now but it can use the daisy chain wire to power all your other pedals (i power boss, line 6, danelectro and a Phase 90 pedals with the TU2.). Great if your band practices alot and you have to keep buying batteries.
