Colorful display with easy to read dial

Good quality, nice, easy reading display, good companion for my electric axe

Bright screen display

maybe a couple 5 secs later it MIGHT raise up to where its tuned, hit the string again and BOOM goes to the left and wont budge, both are the samein teh beginning if I took the rubber off the jaws they worked a but better as far as response and when they do work they are accurate I suppose but getting the meter to move is DIFFICULT and frankly not worth my time, I have a Korg that does the same but not as bad, best one I have to
