  • We put 7 guitar tuners to the test to find the best guitar tuner on the market today.
    A tuner is one of the most essential things that a guitarist can have in their gig bag, but we will admit, it's hard to get too excited about them!
    So in this video, Sam and Meg take a look at 7 of our favourite tuners, and try to make them a little bit sexier and interesting...
    It's tuner pedals vs clip-on tuners in a battle over best tuners for guitar and bass. We've picked a mixture of pedal based tuners (ideal for electric/electro-acoustic instruments) and clip-on models (perfect for acoustic instruments), explaining the differences and pointing out the pros and cons of each one, to help you find the best tuner for your needs...
    Find out more about each of our picks in this 7 best tuners list via the links below:

    Bands such as the Foo Fighters and Slash tour with Boss TU-3 pedals, that’s good enough for me! Use to have a TU-2, worked great but sold it and got a mini poly tuner which served me for years but started making odd buzz sounds? and got fussy with tuning at times? Nice display! but now I’m with the Boss Waza Tu-3, solid as a tank! nice to have a power out to neatly add another pedal next to it! I like the blue LED, nice to have buffer on/off option, it’s quick

    Peterson Strobe tuners come in both clip-on and pedal (as well as rack-mount but that's typically out of most player's price point from ~$450 used to ~$2000+ new), and the Petersons use true strobe tuning, and display true strobe tuning (as true as one can get on a digital, non-mechanical display), which is where pretty much any and all chromatic tuners fall short. No matter how many fractions of a cent a chromatic tuner is accurate to, if said tuner is unable to display the level of detail needed to see that accuracy, it doesn't matter. If you truly want accuracy, Peterson is the way to go, at the very least for playing shows. Have all band members use the same strobe tuner to tune up, and you'll be about as accurate as possible.

    29 years of tuning:
    Peterson Stroborack - Awful display, died in less than a year, hated every minute of it, worst $400 ever spent
    Peterson Stroboplus HD - Great, but online functions disabled the second the new line hit the market
    Snark clip-on - Loaned to a friend, never saw it again.
    Boss TU-12 from 1999 - Still going strong after 20 years of gigs, recording sessions and music school
    Boss TU-2 -Was still working when I traded it in for a TU-3
    Boss TU-3 - Still going strong
    Mom's Casio keyboard - Still going strong
    Line 6 POD - Recalibrates itself randomly by several cents without telling me, and has to be constantly checked
    Rocktron Prophesy built-in tuner - God no
    Digitech RP3/RP3 built in tuners - Not calibrated to anything I want to play

    I recently bought a SNARK clip on tuner only to read in its own instructions "Do Not Use On Any Gibson Guitar Or A Guitar With A Nitrocellulose Finish". Horified at the possible damage to my Gibson, I bought a BOSS TU-30 which has both an input jack and a microphone. I worry about possible damage that all clip on tuners can do to expensive guitars. In saying that, I used the SNARK on an old polly coated guitar and found the tuner was excellent, so easy to use and read. Just wish these manufacturers would do some research on their foam/rubber and how to make it safe for nitocellulose finished guitars.
