Fantastic Tuner for the Price!

This is the best tuner I have ever owned. I have used several different tuners in the past, including a stobe style tuner double the price of the Polytune, and I can tell you the the Polytune gives you extremely accurate tuning results and without all the time and frustration of tuning with a strobe. I used my Polytune first, then tested it against my $200 strobe tuner. The results? Dead on. Same accuracy. Don't get me wrong, I still like to goof around with my strobe, despite the occasional frustration. But I don't want to use a strobe and tune each string when I'm jamming and need to get into tune quickly.

Plug it in, strum all the strings, tune up, and in less than a minute you are ready to rock! I use the larger version because it can be powered with batteries in addition to AC adaptor; but they also have a smaller version that takes up less space on your pedalboard if you want.

Highly recommended!

Huge time saver for tuning strings

All I can say is that the time I save tuning is well worth the money to buy this product. Having the ability to see the status of all my strings at one shot make it very quick to identify the string(s) that are out of tune and get them back to the correct level. This item is worth every penny.

Wow!

coolest tuner ever

Amazingly fast and accurate tuner

There simply isn't a better tuner out there. I didn't think it would make much of a difference, but tuning with this is a breeze, and much faster. It's as accurate as it can be.

Excellent Tuner

I've been a dedicated TU-2 user over the years because they're bullet proof and "good enough" in terms of tuning.

The PolyTune is considerably more accurate than the TU-2 and I like the true-bypass feature (for some situations). I highly recommend it.

My Guitars Have Never Sounded This Good Before

Something about tuning all the strings together in context produces better results than the old-fashioned one string at at time tuning. I love this thing, because it helps me play in tune all the time!

THE BEST BEST TUNER ON THE PLANET.

i bought this tuner here on sweetwater omy its just amazing i used it at home and live on a job this think is something thats irreplaceable ....just try it out ones & boom u stay with this baby for life...rock on

Sweet tuner!

Pretty sweet when you can tune all strings at once! Want to do one string at a time? Well, that can be done as well!

Only wish the led's were a little bigger when tuning all strings at once. All my other tuners are backups now!

If your guitar has whammy bar, this is the ONLY way to tune

Guitars with whammy bars are notoriously hard to tune because, changing the tuning of one string affects the spring tension, which affects the tuning of all of the other string - sure it's slight, but it's enough to put you back out of tune. With this, you get a snapshot of all strings and can see the effect of this in real time. MUCH faster, much better in tuner when you're done.

Polytune excellent

I get a kick out of the 6 string mode, and that works fine. But I find myself bowing to old habits and plucking/tuning each string individually, and for that the big display is excellent, easy to read, accurate, and stable.

Easy to use

Easy to use, works as advertised

Roadworthy & Accurate

First and foremost, this tuner does its job well. The polytune feature takes some getting used to, but it is very useful. The individual string tuning is accurate, fast, and easy to read.

It is also built VERY well. One of the most roadworthy tuners on the market.

And the bonus -- it has extremely good battery life. In fact, better than any tuner I have ever used. I use this tuner almost daily for shows and one battery lasts me 3+ MONTHS! The savings on batteries will probably pay for the tuner over its lifetime.

Beats the competition for three reasons

First, It's true bypass. Second, You can get a quick overview of which strings need attention with a single strum. Lastly, You can dial in via 'cent' to a .5 cent accuracy, any more accurate and you are probably going to have to tune via 'stream' mode. (Which is a pain in the...)

Great tuner in compact design

Great tuner. The polytune feature is great for a quick check, then you can zero in on any strings that are off. I like that it's smaller than the standard Boss tuner too. A pedal like this doesn't need to take up much space on your board.

Yes, faster tuning, but ...

Here's the proviso: the poly mode is great for a quick overview, but I find that I stlll have to isolate individual strings for finer accuracy. That's okay and still handy, though not quite the revolution I had hoped. Upside is very bright LEDs.

Acoustic Players be weary

I just recieved my polytune from sweetwater and got it really quick, no suprise there, since this is sweetwater. But I had bought this to replace my boss tuner pedal for acoustic use since the boss is not true bypass. So I figured, get something that would increase tuning time on stage by doing all strings at the same time. While this tuner works as expected on my electric guitar, its a little sketchy with my acoustic. It works in polytune mode when i strum all strings which is good. But this tuner does not support drop D tunings in poly mode. Which means you must hit single strings to trigger chromatic needle mode and tune conventionally. Problem is, with my 2 taylor acoustics, when I hit the low E or A strings, it comes up with poly mode and does not allow me to tune chromatically. This basically means I'm out of luck for drop D tunings on my acoustic.
