Peterson StroboClip HD Clip-On Tuner | Guitar, Bass, Violin, Ukulele, Harp, Brass, Woodwind, Orchestral

Price is a bit heavy but this is an easy to read tuner that also allows a whole variety of tunings. With the usual headstock tuners, it can be difficult to see when the indicator is centred and because I'm red/green colour blind it's not easy to see red off-tune indications. The Peterson tuner uses a rotating display which stops moving when the instrument is in tune; very easy to use. I leave mine set to sweetened tunings, which tunes the strings a few cents short on the actual note and gives a more pleasant sound. That's a subject which others can google. Probably the best accessory I've bought for my guitars, over many years.

Firstly I'm not going to go into great detail what this tuner is capable of doing as there are already a great many reviews out there. The USB connection socket on my device is a mini micro connection and the design of the unit was probably pre USB C. Many already know how fiddley this socket can be connecting to, and so easy to get the plug matched to the socket the wrong way around thus damaging the socket. A good way of making sure this never happens is to mark both plug and unit with a dab of quick drying nail polish. Not everyone realises that the USB plug itself usually has a raised USB symbol, moulded into the top of the USB plug. This will always face towards you when connecting to the unit which should also be facin towards you. Either mark the socket and plug, or purchase a USB Mini Micro to USB C adaptor. This particular machine i will say the instructions mention nothing about the USB connection, I failed to find anything that mentioned what connection it was. Staring down into the USB connection it was quite difficult to make out what socket it was because the socket was wonky and partly hidden where it had not been positioned correctly at the factory it was built/assembled. This was shoddy workmanship. Better instructions might be found at the vendors website, I haven't checked there personally but if you have a problem that is first port of call. Secondly for the price of the unit Peterson doesn't even include a USB lead!! If a unit is supplied with a USB connection then the company must always, always supply the lead in the box as standard. Its a little like supplying a unit with mains and not including the mains cable with the assumption many will already have the cable, "Do Not Make Assumptions" Constuction: Made of plastic, the actual stalk that the tuner display sits on, Prime Snap off Territory. Just take care with it as its liable to snap here if ever caught or hit on something when attached to the guitars headstock. "It is what it is" Guaranteed this will happen to someone. Otherwise yes its a brilliant tool as well for set ups, yes goes to sleep but wakes up soon as a string is tapped. Intonation tests with this are stable and perfect for this sort of set up recommended. No vibration or sound detected briefly the unit's display closes, but soon as it detects life the screen immediately responds. If left unused for say one minute the unit will switch off altogether to save on battery. It's easy to switch it back on. I trust with future units the USB Socket is changed out for a C connection as the lead can be connected up or down side. Shoddy workmanship on the USB socket, but overall a near good quality unit but definitely a good hands free strobe tuner.

I really didn't need another tuner. I have the TC polytuner, the boss TU and various others....but I do like gadgets and this strobe tuner promises so much functionality! Of course 90% I won't use but still, somehow I had to have it. Well, you do don't you? So, it does what it says and is well made but the surprise is just how accurate it is. I can hear a difference for the better using the sweetened tuning. Its subtle but definitely there. The capo setting i thought I wouldn't need I use all the time. That function alone makes this a worthwhile purchase for me. The display is clear in all lighting situations and menu system is logical. At this price it is a luxury, a much cheaper tuner will still do a good enough job, but if you want to treat yourself and have a mix of instruments, frequently move capo position or change tunings then you won't regret buying it. Highly recommended.

I bought this having seen it used by Barry Maz (Got A Ukulele) and immediately regretted it. It's a very well made tuner and super accurate but is it worth five times the price of a Snark? No it's not. The Snark is a lovely, accurate tuner and costs a tenner.

I have several tuners used mainly for Ukulele & the like. This make and model is by far the best of those I have. In fact it is so good, this is now my 3rd one and I don't think I would now change brands, even though it is a more expensive than others. In my opinion it is worth it for the extra accuracy. It easy to use & has the capacity to ultra tune my Ukes. The small screen is also very bright with clear info shown. All in all a great tuner.

Got this a few days ago and I absolutely love it. I own more guitar tuners than I can count, mostly cheap clip-ons I've accumulated over the years, but this is by far the most accurate I've used outside of full sized mechanical strobe tuners. The display is bright, easy to read and responsive...and unlike some of the other reviews, I've had no difficulty finding the power/menu button in the dark. The power button is raised and the other two are flush with the surface of the device, so it's easy to locate by touch. The 'sweeteners' are a little hit and miss, I find I prefer just the straight equal termprament tuning rather than the 'sweetened' acoustic guitar setting, but that really comes down to personal preference and the style you play.

Had a few different tuners and they all done a very good job, thought i would give this ago so sent for it and it arrived next day, I had just finished tuning my banjo with the snark silver, but thougt I would still give it ago and was suprised that how far out of tune i still was, there was a big difference that i could actually hear my banjo sounds a lot better, now it sounds proper build quality seems fine but like anything you knock it about you gonna break it functionality buttons are a tad tricky as they are pretty small but it does the job and a very good job it does

All the positive reviews are true. I’ve been plying Bass, Guitar and Bazouki for over 50 years and thought I had tuning nailed but the accuracy of this little tuner has improved the actual sound of my instruments so much. There are so much rich harmonics coming out now and they seem to stay in tune longer too. Absolutely brilliant and worth the extra quids. The display is High definition so really easy to see. Power button so easy to locate and the optional tunings and Sweeteners open up a whole new world. What more can I say?

You don't have to look further for the "best" tuner; this is it! If you need a spot-on tuner, that will work on your bass-guitar, regular acoustic or electric guitar, or even your flute or clarinet, then this is the one to get. I have tried it on all of these, and it provides perfect tune in all. I've owned tuners from almost all major manufacturers, and while some come close to the Strobo-clip HD, none have been able to match its speed, accuracy and legibility. It's fantastic to have no lag-time in display, or doubt about which direction to turn the tuning knobs, or in the case of my clarinet, how far in or out to adjust the mouthpiece for a perfect B-flat reference tone. Likewise, for my flute, which on occasion requires a check of the mouthpiece tube/body insertion point. I was hesitant to spend more than the usual amount for a tuner, but some others are nearly as expensive, yet are not nearly as good. I've read a very few bad reviews, but when the source was considered, I realized I had to try a Strobo-Clip for myself. I'm extremely delighted that I did. Now I have a benchmark with which to calibrate all my other tuners, which are mostly of the sound-hole type (Korg Rim-Clip and a smaller one from D'Addario). These can work well on-stage, but can be fussy about where they are placed on the sound hole. Not so with the Strobo-Clip, which works anywhere you can clip it on.! Well, nuff said, take a chance (and with Amazon's easy return policy there is no real difficulty) and try one for yourself... You'll probably come to the same conclusion I did; why didn't I buy a Strobo-Clip years ago? The other features of this product are also great (like sweetened tuning and altered tuning, but honestly, it is alone worth the price just to have the easy of use, and accuracy it provides. Consider poor ratings of this tuner as either extremely rare instances of an issue with the tuner, or more often, improper operation by the end-user. I have had no issues, and the battery-life is certainly as good as any other tuner I've ever had. That is to say, turn it off when you're done; don't wait for auto-shutdown. All in all it'l the best clip-on tuner money can buy, and a bargain when that is considered.

Es una pasada de afinador lo utilizo para la guitarra clásica y la eléctrica es super preciso. Al principio cuesta un poco porque es super pro pero en cuanto le encuentras el toque es lo mas

Je n'ai pas encore testé toutes les possibilités ,mais pour un accordage "normal" cet outil est fantastique ! J''ai plusieurs accordeurs "pince" mais celui -ci surpasse de beaucoup les autres ! Très bon achat . Le prix se justifie ; Bravo à tous ;le vendeur et Amazon ! Merci grandement .

ジェームステイラーチューニングをするため、微調整がカスタムで出来るチューナーが欲しかったため 買いました。これより大きいやつで、ストロボ式で少し高いやつもありますが、性能は同じなので これでもいいと思います。
