Pedal tuner

Grolschevik

Anyone ever use one of these? Several online reviews claim it to be more accurate than the Boss TU2...

But will it still be here after we're all gone?

Rumour has it that if a nuclear bomb went off, all that would be left are cochroaches and TU-2's. :eek:

Great pedals. They're my tuner of choice.

it's all about the strobostomp lads!

Sure just play every song in G.

Yeah, the Peterson Strobostomp looks the business, but it's too expensive for me to be kicking around the place. The sonic fidelity it gives you means nothing in a live situation either. True Bypass, Shoe Bypass, I want something I can throw at the drummer and not worry about.

My main consideration has been size and weight up to now; muting hasn't really been an issue. I run an out from my stereo chorus to my very accurate Seiko tuner. If I need to silent tune, I knock the amp on standby or turn it down. That's annoying me now that I'm gigging more, and I'm thinking about a muting pedal tuner, but space on my board is at a premium, and I don't want to add another 2 pounds to what I already have to carry.

I suppose I could use an A/B box to route the signal to my old, light and accurate tuner for silent tuning. Something like the EH nano switchblade.

The muting is quite handy. Putting the amp into standby frequently is actually not great for the life of the valves apparently.
