    Got one of these over the weekend. It was this review which got me started on research. Subsequent reviews sealed the deal and now all my guitars and my mandolin are tuned. Love this thing. And the tuning is spot-on!

    Good to hear, Mark! Hope you enjoy yours as much as I do mine.

    Peace

    I’ve got one, updated the firmware, have added my own tunings. I only wish you could override the wrong string setting and force it to tune. That would come in handy when changing strings. I love being able to change tunings in seconds. It opens up possible set lists with songs that just weren’t feasible before, without bringing multiple pre-tuned guitars.

    Wow, what an interesting little tuner. It looks really high tech! Having the right tuner is super important if you want to be a respectable guitarist. I can’t tell you how many times guitarists have annoyed me and my band members by being out of tune. Its just unprofessional and nobody will take you seriously.

    Its such an easy problem to fix and this review is proof of that. I am a big fan of the Snark clip on tuners. You don’t ever need to plug in, and they can save your butt in the middle of a song. I love seeing new tech come out for guitars. This is just one more asset to add to our guitar gear arsenal. Keep up the good work David!

    Hi…just got one of these in the mail….trying to tune my 5 string banjo to open G using….I don’t see open G tuning in the menu
    I am a real beginner applying any instrument…sorry for the stupid (probably) question…

    Hi Dave

    If you’re using the 5-string banjo setting, it should default to open G, which is considered “Standard tuning” for 5 string banjos. The easiest way to see this is to check the notes it’s telling you. They should read, in order:

    G4
    D3
    G3
    B3
    D4

    Hope this helps. Let me know if it doesn’t and I’ll try to walk you through it.

    By the bye, when it comes to these things, there’s no such thing as a stupid question. Better to know, right?

    Looking forward to chatting with you again.

    Peace
