Location: Waurika OK | I have used several different ones and my favorite is the Intellitouch PT-2.
It clamps on the headstock and picks up the vibrations that way. Not influenced by ambient noise, digital readout is large enough to be seen easily. |

Location: SoCal | I've had an Intelitouch and have had problems with it with Ovations. It has to be attached down by the E string, on either side and doesn't always pick up the needed vibrations. |

Location: Toronto | I like the Sabine's, they attach to the body of the guitar, and like the Intelitouch, tune from vibration. I've been using Sabine's for years and just love em!! |

It's a "stompbox", but it's accurate as hell . . . |

For my 1624 I use an A tuning fork. And then tune the guitar to itself. Planet waves also has an E fork. |

Location: Boise, Idaho | I like the Korg, too. I think the guitar/bass one for under $15 is the CA 30. Plug it in or use the mic. |

Location: Carle Place, NY | The Korg works well, especially for the price. I also have the Boss TU-2. It's more expensive, but also more accurate. |
