Behringer TU300 Chromatic Tuner Pedal for Guitar and Bass with Bright LED Display and Accurate Tuning

Simple an effective tuner that you can just pop a battery in and carry along with your guitar. Handy for the occasions when your clip on tuner is flat. You can use it and power it on a pedal board if you need but in reality you’re probably going to need something with a bigger and brighter display.

Ok so I received this yesterday just before band practise with a bunch of friends.So one plus was very fast delivery, received Saturday AM after ordering Thursday AM, and that was on the FREE supersaver delivery.Benefits are as you'd expect. Other people were tuning with apps on phones (which is a good way) except everyone needed to be quiet for this, so being able to tune with a pedal was a huge advantage.It is also very well built. I was quite surprised how chunky it was for the money it cost.Now the downsides and the reason it is not 5 star:I use a HSS Strat and the tuner does NOT like the Humbucker pickup. It gets confused as hell and you cant tune on that pickup. Not an issue for me, just switch to a single coil and it works great. But it is something you need to know when deciding to buy this or not. If you have a guitar with only Humbuckers then this might not work at all for you. Again, this was just my humbucker it couldn't deal with, just be aware.You need to have the volume up quite high on the guitar for it to work properly. If the volume is low on the guitar then the tuner is slow to react if it reacts at all. This means you end up activating the pedal and muting your guitar, you then turn up the volume to tune and then when you unmute again you end up with your volume too high! Very annoying when playing with other people and trying to set your levels. This is something you can compensate for when you set up your levels at the beginning of playing.Final, as said before by others, BATTERY! It eats 9V batteries. Put a new one in straight away. The tuner only seems to switch on when cables are plugged in to it so overnight the tuner was left in circuit but with the amp off and this morning the battery was dead! So this will get very expensive to use it on batteries. So straight away I'm off to buy a power supply! EDIT: It does say on the back to unplug the jacks to preserve batteries, so I'll see how long a battery lasts now that I'll follow the maker's recommendations!So in conclusion, good value for money as it is very very cheap for what it is, so if you can deal with the negatives mentioned, it will do you well. If you need something that you can use on battery for a long time and your guitar has Humbuckers and no single coils, you might need to look elsewhere. Fine for me though!

Using this as my always-on tuner on my pedal board. It has both an output and a bypass which is why I picked this one.It shows the same pitch as my other tuner so it seems accurate enough. It's not the quickest to register small changes but it's fast enough that I have been able to use it to help me check the pitch of my bends as I play.Sometimes says my B string is an E on both my guitars if it's played softly which is weird but not that big of a deal.

This pedal does exactly what it says it should on the box - it’s a pedal that tunes your guitar at a relatively low price. And in that it’s a success, and when I used it for a solo gig with my Gretsch Streamlined it was exceptionally helpful in maintaining tuning. The mute function was also particularly useful. However, as others have noted the plastic build quality is lacking, and I expect I’ll have this for a year or less and then have to replace it.It is also slow - not as slow as others have made it out to be, but it is not as fast as the Boss pedal which I have tried out before. This is particularly evident on the low E string, and it sometimes seems to fail to pick up the note at all , although this is uncommon, and is not an issue on the higher strings. This may be an issue though particularly for bass players. The pedal is also quite sensitive in terms of determining the frequencies of the strings - which is no bad thing - however when coupled with a slower response time, it can be slightly infuriating.Yet, this is a good starter tuner pedal, and to go from using a phone to tune to this, it is almost miraculous. I’m sure that I will go for a Boss pedal eventually, but as a first time tuning pedal, this does the job, and at an affordable price as well.

The media could not be loaded. Behringer are fantastic pedals.I grew up with these from being like 14 years old.While I no longer use this, I use the polytune3 for various reasons.But it's an excellent, cheap and accurate tuner!!!No. It won't break because it's plastic. Unless you launch it at a wall.....It's just 100% a good pedal and worth it.I use my polytune now because it has a few settings I like having as options and also as I now play pro in front of big audiences with lots of fancy kit, I want confidence in my tone and noise, not saying these pedals affect tone or noise... But obviously the more you pay the better quality you're getting for your signal....and so I upgraded.100% buy it, try it, you don't like it, return it for free... But I used it here live and you tell me how the tone sounds?

Function - I like that mode can be switched from chromatic to guitar (or bass). The LED is very bright and is always on - brighter when active. Do not pay attention to complaints about it being too bright, I have a Boss GT10 multi FX and the LEDs on that are brighter!It is made of ABS plastic. I am not a gigging musician and I don't need it to be built like a brick outhouse. Seems sturdy enough to me. Probably not much use in a fight in a mosh pit but intimidating enough in my social circles!Accuracy - I have been playing guitar for a lot of years and I never had one this good. If you look at the graduated LED display scale, it will tell you why the frets compromise true temper of the instrument. I would be happy to use it to set intonation.Battery change is a PITA. Get a power supply.This is a very good guitar tuner. I have long believed that it is best to buy expensive stuff because you get what you pay for. This is an exception to my rule. I have another Behringer pedal (Tube Overdrive) and both are brilliant and ridiculously cheap.Buy it!
