Off Topic Possibly a stupid question?

[colinboy]

Hey guys im looking for a good portable type tuner mainly for tuning my acoustic guitar.i normally tune it down a semitone in pitch to suit my voice when singing more so than anything else.

I was looking on E-bay today at the planet waves tuners as ive heard their stuff is good normally.

I have a boss tu2 tuner but it isnt good for tuning my semi acoustic guild guitar.

Any suggestions on agood tuner for my acoustic?

cheers

The TU-12 has a microphone built-in...

its the pedal type tuner from boss i have the TU-2 tuner with the white casing.that one doesnt have abuilt in mic that your talking about.

I've heard good things about the Behringer rack tuner/metronome (if rack gear isn't out of the question).

It has a built in mic and is super cheap.

I find any of the small Korg tuners work great and very portable.

I have something called the Intellitouch Tuner that clips to your headstock and was about $25.00

No, he was recommending the tu-12. It's a handheld tuner that's really nice. However, if you need it to be a pedal tuner that's a different story.

I had the boss tu-12H and can recommend this series. Excellent tuner!

Peterson Strobostomp if you go pedal style.

If you want portable, and don't want to spend the money on a Peterson, you can't really beat this...

I think I got mine for around US$10~15

I have that as well. I like it a lot. I got mine free as part of a promotion when I bought a number of string sets a few years ago.

I have always been really happy with Korg tuners.

 

[colinboy]

i bought a nice chromatic tuner from planet waves on ebay at a good price and it clips on to my acoustic guitar also so il hopefully be happy now.

thanks for all the input people!

That should work just fine! Glad you found something...
