Received an e-mail about this cheap clip-on tuner from Reverb for AU$2 shipped! Limit of 1 per Reverb user. You might have to register a Reverb account.
"Includes five modes: C, G, B, V, U (chromatic, guitar, bass, violin, ukulele) to cover the gamut of stringed instruments. It also works great on mandolin, banjo and nearly any other stringed instrument.
Batteries included. Limit 1 per user. Please allow 2 weeks delivery time. Tuners ship from our US headquarters in Chicago, IL."
I haven't tried these out, but for 2 bucks, I don't expect them to be ultra accurate. Still, for just quick tune ups at home, they should be alright for the price. I just ordered one. We'll see once mine arrives in 2 weeks.
Are batteries included?
-edit-
yes it is
For some reason I get the feeling this is too good to be true. What is the catch?
Yes I feel the same, but if you pay with PayPal there is no risk, if indeed $2 is a risk.
I'd grab one if I owned a guitar, or had any interest in playing the guitar. Sadly, neither are true.
Reverb is a reputable company, these tuners don't cost much ($5 on eBay) so it's safe to say there is no catch.
Just use the plethora of free tuner apps available?
I have a few instrument specific tuning apps and I have used them. Have to say I prefer the physical tuners myself though. Made specifically for tuning and doesn't need to allow for differences in your phones microphone pick up.
For a noisy environment a clip-on tuner is much better, especially when there are other people playing instruments nearby.
Thanks OP got one also. Have seen these tuners on eBay for $5-6 so at $2 it's a good price.
so, normally its
$5.44AUD + $19.04 Shipping
now its $2 delivered.
only 5 in stock it says so be quick.
Sold out
Got mine today.
How was it? I still haven't got mine.
I can only compare it to my other two tuners the JOYO JT-01 and the AROMA AT200D and I think it might be better as it picks up the note much sooner/stronger.
Overall it is very very good tuner and thanks once again for posting the deal.
Any good?
