Planet Waves Chromatic Headstock Tuner
Tuning a guitar shouldn't be a drag. And it isn't with the Planet Waves Chromatic Headstock Tuner.
The tiny tuner can be used to tune acoustic and electric guitars, basses and other stringed instruments without any complicated maneuvers.
Just clip the Planet Waves Chromatic Headstock Tuner onto the headstock and pluck a string. The tuner won't sense the sound, but it will sense the vibrations sent through the instrument. A bright LCD display will let you know if you're in or out of tune. If the instrument is in tune, the screen shows the note in green. If it's out of tune, it will show the note in red.
The Planet Waves Chromatic Headstock Tuner also has a light stick that tells you if you're too low (appears to the left of the note) or too high (appears to the right of the note). Use this guide to decide which direction to turn the tuning peg -- tighter or looser.
The Planet Waves Chromatic Headstock Tuner works in noisy or dimly lit settings. The tuner is so small and light, you can leave it clipped to the headstock and it won't impact the sound.
The Planet Waves Chromatic Headstock Tuner really takes the drudgery out of keeping a stringed instrument in tune.
There's no excuse for having an out of tune instrument when you own the Planet Waves Chromatic Headstock Tuner. Clip the tuner onto the headstock, turn it on and pluck a string. The tuner will sense the vibration and let you know if it's in tune (the note appears in green) or out of tune (the note appears in red). A guide stick light will indicate if you're too low or too high, so you can turn the tuning pegs accordingly.
The headstock tuner can be used in noisy or dimly lit settings that make tuning difficult using regular tuners that rely on sound or don't have backlights.
This view of the top, shows the fequency control knob in the upper left. The tuner is A440 calibrated but can be set to any pitch from A435 to A445. The on/off button is in the lower right.
The Planet Waves Chromatic Headstock Tuner is so tiny and light, you can leave it attached to the headstock, and it won't affect the performance of your instrument.
