George Washburn Limited All Koa Concert Ukulele Review

George Washburn Limited All Koa Concert Ukulele
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I just got this uke a few days ago, and I absolutely love it. I would give it 5 stars in a heartbeat. I immediately changed the nylon strings out for Aquila nylgut strings because they had terrible sound and felt too stretchy. After that improvement I couldn't be happier. Build quality is immaculate, finish is great, playability is fantastic, and the tone is bright and loud. I'd recommend it to anyone (with a new set of strings). Now that there is finally a review, nobody has to take a stab in the dark for this beautiful uke.

iTab P01BK Electronic Songbook Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I received this as a gift (It was on my wish list). I've been trying to figure it out for a couple hours and I just don't think it works the way anyone would expect. First there is no Guitar Tab used. For a given song, the major chords and there fingering are listed, for example 'Am XO221O'. Then it's just lyrics with the chord names over the change points. So it's less like Tab and more like a lyric cheat sheet. The system is supposed to scroll in time, but several songs just do not work at all. Manually scrolling to see a preview of all the lyrics is very difficult to do as there isn't a smooth scroll but rather a few line jump every time you touch the scroll bar. You can load MP3s and even create your own tab files, but the sound output via built in speaker is very weak, and through the headphone output is not very good. Additional songs are averaging $0.44 for the tab files. You can load your own MP3s. I'm going to try a bit more, but be warned, if you're used to an iPhone or similar, and expect that this is going to be the musicians version with Guitar Tab, you'll be very disappointed.

The metronome is just the right size for me. It works just fine for practicing by myself. Not so great for chamber rehearsal, though---no one in my trio could hear it. But otherwise, just fine!

I use this for my ukulele and guitar! The title says violin but after speaking to the manufacturer I discovered it will work on anything that vibrates. The product arrived in record time. The strap is an extra perk. I needed a strap and feel like I got it for free.

Planet Waves CT-02 Multi-Function Chromatic Tuner Review

Planet Waves CT-02 Multi-Function Chromatic Tuner
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)

We all know the expression "Close enough for jazz/rock etc? Well with this
unit you had best hope that that is close enough..I have been using an Intellitouch headstock tuner, as
well as a Korg electronic tuner..The Planet Waves looked cool, so what the heck, whats twenty five
bucks eh? First of all the instructions are those "version in every language on the planet" things that
means that each language gets like 3 paragraphs of information. Not sufficient. So problem one
instruction manual does not instruct.
Unit also has several 'modes' of tuning.. One is a direct plug in to a 1/4" jack for an electric
guitar etc, the other is a vibration sensor, to be used with acoustic guitars or on the headstock of an electric.
Means of telling if you are in tune or not is a dial with a rotating strobe light thingy, that is suppose to turn green when your string is tuned to perfect pitch...WRONG...
Here is where the 'close enough for jazz" comes in... When or even IF you can figure out how to read the
'strobe' tuner, and you tune it just to where it should be the best, you are still at least 3 cents flat or
sharp,(That means that musicians will grind their teeth, but most non players will never know the difference) no biggie you say.. ok then close enough is good enough.. If it is not then I would skip the Planet
Waves Multi-function CT-02 and buy something that allows you to tune your guitar close enough for MUSIC..
However if you play sounds that "will turn tree toads sterile at 100 yards" This unit may be just the thing
for you...

Grover STA-TITETM GEARED UKULELE PEGS 8N Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
These Grovers replaced the factory close-backed tuners that came with my Lanikai S-T Spruce Series Tenor Ukulele. I had to enlarge the holes in the peghead slightly, and drill new holes for the two screws that are included with each tuning peg. Other than that, the tuners went in very quickly. And, all hardware that you need is included in the package. Now, I have beautiful, open-backed tuners that keep my ukulele in tune no matter how often, or hard I play it.

Shadow Sonic Tuner For Acoustic Guitar Soundholes Review

Shadow Sonic Tuner For Acoustic Guitar Soundholes
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
The Shadow Sonic acoustic sound hole tuner is a genius device. Completely foolproof, you never have to worry about leaving your clip-on at home. I had one installed in my Martin D-41. Once in place, it is easy to use. Simply reach in, turn it on, and tune away. It is invisible to everyone but you. Easy to see, and very accurate, it is always there. The battery lasts for 1,200 tunes. The unit itself is affixed by velcro, so it can easily be removed for battery replacement by removing the treble strings. I have no issues whatsoever, and could not be more pleased with this product.

Cecilio 92-D Chromatic Tuner with Metronome Review

Cecilio 92-D Chromatic Tuner with Metronome
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I'm a music teacher and I have several tuner/metronomes, but got this one because one of my students who is colorblind had one. I really liked it at first (the back light is pretty) and does not rely on color recognition to determine pitch accuracy. However, no matter how I configure it, the A pitch won't tune properly. This one is probably damaged, leaving me with the feeling that I wish I'd purchased an Intelli; at least I'd know it would work properly.

Sabine MT-12000 Advanced Tuner/Metronome/Tone Generator Review

Sabine MT-12000 Advanced Tuner/Metronome/Tone Generator
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This tuner is probably one of the best values for this level of instrument. The split features are a great bonus. The microphone is very sensitive, so you will want to combine a pickup mic for wind instruments and or noisy environments. If you are in a band or orchestra, you'll need the pickup, but if you are in a studio or practice room you'll be fine. Even background talking may throw it off. Electric instruments benefit from it's in/out jacks.
We have a family with a flute, oboe, clarinet, bass guitar, tenor uke, 2 soprano ukes, and 3 kids in choir and it works great for all of us. The metronome sounds very good and has such a wide-range of variability.

CenterPitch CP10 Clip-On Tuner/Intonation Trainer with Metronome Review

CenterPitch CP10 Clip-On Tuner/Intonation Trainer with Metronome
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I play in several bands, alto and tenor saxophones. For tuning before rehearsals, in the noise of all buddies talking and warming up, this is the thing to have. It clips on to the neck of my horns, so I can see very easily how I'm tuned (I try to use my ear, but just for when it's too noisy, this is better). All my band buddies borrow it to tune their horns, too: trumpets, bones, tubas, and so on! The device can swivel, so one can always postition it in the best viewing angle.
The only thing I have a hard time remembering is what way the indicator says 'sharp' and 'flat', to the left or right... it would probably be feasable to just display those words, instead of the little 1, 2, or 3 arrows on either side! (now that's where my ears come in handy, no pun intended, lol).
All in all, I think it is definitely worth its money!

I purchased this as a replacement for the original Intellitouch tuner that I've been using for years.
They've made some nice improvements. The display is a bit clearer and easier to see in a variety of lighting situations. The clamp is firmer and grips more securely than the original, and the battery seems to last much longer.
I'm very pleased with it.

Really like this tuner! As far as I know, it is the only electronic tuner that has specific Banjo settings (along with guitar, violin/mandolin, ukelele, and chromatic settings)...such that you can see both the note name you're playing and the string number of the banjo on the display as you pluck the string in tune. Very easy to see tuning "needle" and screen color change to green when you've got the note in tune. Smaller form-factor that other tuners I bought for my wife's guitar and the kids' violins, but still with big easy to read display.

Aroma AT-300U Clip-On Chromatic Tuner
Average Reviews:

Most all digital tuners seem alike these days. I believe most are made by one manufacturer, like kitchen appliances. For example, if you look at the Kala KCO2, you'll see that it's the same gadget as this one. I have the Aroma AT-320B as well. They're both fine tuners, but I prefer this one due to the display. It's easy to read, even w/o glasses. It lacks the extra features of the 320, but since I use it solely for the 'ukulele, it doesn't matter. It's accurate and easy to use. It's compact and fits in the case compartment of my soprano 'ukulele, which is quite small. I highly recommend it.
