 Great Tuner March 21, 2008
This is my first digital tuner. It works great and does an excellent job tuning in a loud and noisy room with other guitars.
Some owners have complained about the tuner not accurately representing the (5th and 6th) A & E strings when tuning on an open strings. The method to overcome this problem is to us the 12th fret harmonic when tuning. I've performed this on all tuning occasions using the open cord to get close and using the 12th fret harmonic for more precise tuning. When doing this it overcomes the problem with the open cord and gives you a more accurate tune lower on the neck of the guitar.
 Fair, but still could be better March 6, 2008
I've been using one of these since they came out. While it is more sensitive than the Intellitouch it suffers two fairly major issues - response time to tuning changes is slow, making tuning a frustrating effort unless you wait for the meter to do its sample and computation. The other issue is that it's really not that accurate. The Intellitouch tuners, which have their own issues, are much better on accuracy and on fast responses to tuning changes. The button rattle on the Intelli is a known issue - don't leave it on your instrument if this is a problem for you. Unfortunately, it's hard to recommend this one because of the drawbacks. That said, I continue to use mine just because there is nothing else right now for a noisy room tuner.
Excellent clip-on tuner February 17, 2008
While the first generation Intellitouch tuners were adequate, and a technological advance over previous tuners, this is another-order-of-magnitude better. Seems to have much better transference, metering is more precise; backlight is better, and it seems to be less prone to interference from ambient noise (unless you guitar is humming from all the low frequencies the bass player is generating). Great tuner.
Love It!! February 16, 2008
The back lit screen is easy to read, it is not difficult to use, just clip it on the head stock, turn it on and go. It's great for in the clubs, or any low light area, I have purchased two more, one for my mando and one for my upright bass, where I clip it to the bridge. I would highly recommend it.
Excellent tuner at a low cost January 10, 2008

I purchased this tuner for my soprano ukulele (tuned GCEA).
It is amazingly light-weight and extremely easy to use.
The back light is bright enough to see in any light source and the tilting and pivoting head allows for placement just about anywhere on the head.
I have had no problems with this tuner.
