Default Which tuner then??

My 20 year old Boss TU12 finally gave up the ghost at Jam Night on Monday.

I need an accurate replacement that isn't small and plastic and in the region of fifty sheets.

Suggestions please.........

i have two i use regularly

Korg pitchblack for general tuning duties: sturdy, reliable, nice clear display, fits on a pedalboard nicely

Peterson stroboflip for new builds/set-ups: incredibly accurate, the starship enterprise of tuners, lots of options, confusing display if not used to it, well out of budget!!

I really like my Turbotuner - I find it easier to read than the Turbotuner I tried. And it's very quick and accurate.

Oh. Bugger. Sorry, just read the budget.

Ah; y'see, the second time I said Turbotuner I meant Strobostomp. La la la.

The Turbo tuner ST-200 like Sporky said.

You have to buy direct and the exchange rate puts it at a bargain price. For the sake of an extra 30 quid out of your budget,you may as well get the best.
