    Korg CA40 Large Display Auto Chromatic Tuner

    • It was good, but background noise interferes with the tuning
    • I can plug my Bass into it with a normal jack cord and tune it with background noise doesnt have not needed to use it inline because I do not play professionally anymore
    • They are very handy as it does not need to be plugged in, and you have the option of using the tone to tune to, if the background noise is confusing the meter
    • It is very sensitive so you must limit any and all background noise when using the external mike when tuning the acoustic.
    • The mic has a rough time with background noise - so if you want to play acoustic at a small show
    • If tuning by the unit's microphone, background noise can be a real problem
    • It show the A A# B B# C C# D... letters, rather the frequencies, very convenient
    • Alas, my experience says newer devices being sold are rarely as good as when they first come out, but you never
    • even his teacher was impressed as to how many functions it has.
    • Works as it should.
    • performs almost as well as a strobe tuner for a lot less money
    • Very good A++
    • It show the A A# B B# C C# D... letters, rather the frequencies, very convenient
    • I'm not sure on how it would perform with bass instruments but it has no issues picking up the low G on my violin
    • It show the A A# B B# C C# D... letters, rather the frequencies, very convenient
    • but I feel like the middle D may be off
    • I would get a good "E" on the top then go down the strings remembering that the "B" string was flat 1/2 step, and got used to it
    • I chose this model for tuning my guitar because it is chromatic, which means (I guess) that it displays every note, every half step, not just the E A D G B E like some other tuners
    • I use it with my classical guitar, picks up on even the high E string no problems
