Location: Hicksville, NY | I don't know much about tuners, except that I have a Boss TU-12 tuner that I use quite often. It was given as a free gift (among other freebies) when I purchased my Martin last year, so I really can't complain. :) |

| W2 - you forgot Hizzoner in your list.
I am mighty impressed with the Intellituner. Martin Taylor said it's the best he's ever used. I can see why. My Seiko needle tuner is just as accurate, but no cables, no background noise distraction and always there when you want it. It is such a clever invention. |

Or those OLD korg tuners with the meters that could take back flips off the top of double marshall stacks and still continue to work. |

| I meant Intellitouch. Varifocal lenses require something a tad furhter away than right under my nose - clamped on the headstock is fine by me. |

you are just so old school!!
I tried to explain what a tuning fork did to my nephew a couple of weeks ago and realized I have not used one since some time in the 80's I think i have to dig it out and show it to him. |

Location: NJ | I've got a tuning fork hanging from a lanyard on the wall-mounted rack in my MusicRoom (it's convenient), a Korg something-or-other velcroed to the workbench, and a Boss TU-2 mounted to my pedalboard for gigs. Don't own a guitar w/onboard. |
