Location: North Chelmsford MA | My two cents:
So, how lazy do you have to be to not want to turn the tuning knob?
Tuning my guitar accounts for most of the exercise I get all week!
It’s a cool idea but when will the madness end? Why not a guitar that Tunes and Plays itself?

It really is pretty cool and fairly accurate but I am so used to using my Petersen Strobe tuner that it spends all of its time in the box. Once you get used to a Petersen strobe, nothing else will do. |

I use one of those little Korg electronic tuners at about 1/4 the price of that one. I can turn the knobs myself. :D |

Location: East Tennessee | String Master listens to the sound and its powerful gear motor actually turns the peg for you Powerful Gear Motor? Not on any of my guitars. :D
I'll stick to my Korg CA-30 and delicately tweak the string unitil it is in tune, then I'll start playing. So much tuning for naught. :o |

I'll stick to what I have. :) It was bad enough when they did this to cars, so no one could work on them without a laptop. :D Leave the musical instruments alone. :rolleyes: |
