Yes
Great tuner at this price point I don't think you can do better. If you want to sound good, you need a tuner on your board. Don't hesitate on this one.
Nice tuner
Great for the price
Great little tuning pedal
Just what I needed. Clear and bright display for even the darkest locations.
On Stage Mini tuner
Seems to be a very nice tuner. Solid and easy to read from standing and easy to use. It's got a place on my board.
Keep moving folks...
I've been buying gear many years now, and everything I've purchased works pretty much as advertised... if I'm not satisfied it's just a matter of taste or preference, etc. NOT THIS TUNER!
Very disappointing performance. Slow... and evidently not very accurate. When this tuner says I'm in tune and I'm clearly not, that's a BIG issue.
In the manufacturer's defense, I do have the On Stage A-B switcher and it works just fine. But with the tuner IMO best to spend a bit more and move up to another product. I am ordering the TC Polytone Or Ibanez Big Mini today.
Shout out to my Sweetwater guy Delvin Wolf! He's been my SW POC for quite a while now and customer service has always been great.
Does it’s job in a compact size
What else can I say? It's a nice little tuner pedal that works and is surprisingly easy to read despite the size. I wish I knew it didn't come with a power supply
Great piece on gear
This product is a great piece of gear to add to any pedal board. Love it.
Cheap is cheap
I expected better based on the glowing reviews. The tuner is not sensitive enough for the quick glance between songs on a gig…let alone an efficient workflow in the studio. In this case cheap actually means cheap. You are better off spending double for something else.
Save Your Money, Get Something Better
I was lured with the low price, but the tracking is slower than sin. Outrageously frustrating when playing live.
Constantly all over the place
I expected more from an inline tuner with a hardwired incoming connection. I tried using this live during several gigs and it takes too long to register the signal and then is usually sharp. Don't let the price tag fool you. Spend a little more to get a more accurate, faster tuner.
Good Tuner, great customer service.
Got the tuner and the click button felt gritty and the screw heads seemed like they were marred. Called customer service and they got me a new one out in a few days. New pedal works great and in perfect condition, and customer service is top notch. I would recommend this tuner to anyone.
Great for the Price
This does what it is supposed to do. I have not used the Flat control. I find it easy to read and it fits on my smalled board perfectly.
Quality at a great price.
I ordered this for my bass pedalboard. Very small footprint. Works very well for both 4-string and 5-string basses. Super bright display and easy to read. No frills, does exactly what it's intended to do. I would highly recommend for anyone who needs a pedal tuner but doesn't was it taking up too much room. Also, I had no issue getting the pedal to stick to the pedalboard. It comes with a double-sided velcro pad which works perfectly fine.
Simple, small and it works.
What else is there? :)
On-Stage Mini Pedal Tuner
A comfy little pedal tuner, that does exactly as advertised. Also, when in use, you don't have to scold the drummer!
Nice little pedal
Needed a tuner for my practice pedal board without spending a ton. Works perfectly
great little tuner for the price
I got this one, as others have, to save space on my pedal board. To answer one question some might have had, this tuner does mute when activated. This was important to me when changing/removing basses. To answer mikes problem about getting the velcro to stick; I first sanded the bottom, which is a layer of silicone rubber, hence the sticking issue, with 240 grit paper and washed it with model airplane dope thinner. After that, no problem.
Thanks to Logan Miller for great customer service!
Perfect fit
I only have a 2 foot wide DIY pedal board, this little fella squeezed in just right!
Mini Tuner
Works fine so far. I haven't used it outdoors yet. I'm hoping it will be bright enough.
Real mini tuner
First I did not expect the tuner to be pocket size but it's a good thing for it saves space on my pedal board.
Second it's easy to use once you get the hang of it. It's quick enough to use and tunes accurately and to be honest it's
a bargain for the price. I recommend it over the other more expensive tuners on the market especially if you're
on a budget. It's built very well and the readout is very easy to see and read.
I can't believe this is a problem
This tuner works fine, it is a great size but I wouldn't buy it again. Why? Because nothing sticks to the bottom of it and I can't secure it to my pedal board. I've wiped it off with water and alcohol and I can't get any tape to stick to it.
It's a tuner!
I needed a new tuner, figured why not give this a shot. The screen is bright and easy to read, it accurately tunes my bass and both my guitars and it's not complicated to use. Not gonna find any surprises or hidden functionality here but it's small, and it's gonna do the job. Definitely recommend.
Bargain
Great Price. Works well. Out standind customer service from Bart Amburn.
Didn't work
The unit i purchased did not power up, and yes i was mindful of the polarity as per instructions. Guess i got a bad apple being that most of the other reviews i read on this product were good. No worries. My sales engineer Codie quickly resolved the issue with one phone call and I'm going with a 2 bundle headstock tuner instead .
It works but it’s not tough
I'll start by saying I'm less careful with my pedals than you should be. I added it to a new pedal board that took several reconfigurations to get right. The adhesive hook and loop it comes with does not stick to its rubber bottom. In less than a year, the power Jack has punched in from repeated plugging in and pulling out. The glass of the screen has taken several scratches just from being carried in a gig bag. Also, it's a bit noisy in the signal chain. Those issues aside, you're gonna be able to see it, your instrument will get in tune, and you won't have to do mental gymnastics justifying the cost.
Small but bright
Smaller tuner that doesn't take much space on my board. Yet bright and clear enough to be easily seen. Big graphics. Seems accurate right out of the box. Great design for an economy price. Just the kind of good value that I've been getting from Sweetwater.
Fast, accurate, easy to see
Fast, accurate, easy to see, and it takes up minimal pedalboard space.
Great Tuner!
I've used a Boss TU2 and 3 as well as a Korg Pitchblack tuner pedal. This On Stage tuner hangs with the best of them. Its Small, Built well, and is true bypass! If you're looking for a pedal tuner for your board definitely consider this. For only $36 you cant beat it. I must warn though the only thing that since its a mini pedal you can only power with a power supply.
