This tuner is just right! small size: easily fits on a music stand; small price; good function! I play the flute and am using it to improve the intonation of the more notoriously sharp and flat notes on the instrument. (If you play the flute, you know which ones I mean!) I just wish I'd bought this long ago!

I've never owned one of the more expensive chromatic tuners on the market, so I can't compare this Korg to one of those others. I can say, though, that I have no complaints about this piece of equipment. Having used this tuner for a year now (on the same set of batteries), I can't imagine why anyone would need or want one of the more expensive devices. If you want a cheap, effective electronic tuner, this is the one to get.

The guitar needs this. The Korg ca-30 is one of the fastest working tuners for a lower price. It goes up and down the whole chromatic scale, so you're pretty much set. It also recognizes simple chords such as A, C, E and G. I have had mine for almost a month and it is holding up great. I have no regrets and i personally think it doesn't matter that it is plain black and not one of the shine-throughs.

Unless you are doing scientific experiments, this is all the tuner any player of guitar, banjo, or fiddle will ever need. I would say other instruments, but these are all the instruments I can play.
A recent thread on the banjo-l list serve about tuners found that most of the hundreds of members of the group felt that the Ca 30 was all they ever needed. This included folks who report having used much more expensive tuners before the CA-30.
I have tried more extensive tuners, especially the Intellitouch which seemed very fashionable when I bought one a couple years ago. However, these tuners are easier to read, sturdier, and truly chromatic. They fit very handily inside even a small violin case or your breast pocket. They also have plug ins for using them with electric instruments or pickups on acoustics.
I would add that sometimes they are not as faithful if the battery is running down. I also find it can be a pain to use them because the dial is not backlit. However, that is something you just adjust to.
I have two guitars and two banjos and a fiddle. I keep two of these plus a Korg that is a version of this basic operation for guitars and basses.
This is all you will ever need and the only way to beat it for the money is to steal one!
