Reviews around issue (5.00 of 5)

  • I pits perfectly on my 1" and 12" banjos but some of the cheapies, like the Goodtime, may have an issue but easy enough to extend the "arms" to accommodate non standard bracket widths

Reviews around clip (5.00 of 5)

  • The clip on tuner on the neck actually works better, but I DO like this design more.
  • It should be *next to the neck*, with the top clip going over the 2nd bracket and tucking under the 3rd bracket - see photo

Reviews around instrument (5.00 of 5)

  • You can also invert the display and easily change the tuning frequency to accommodate instruments (like concertinas or bagpipes) that are not tuned concert
  • This doesn't pick up the instrument quite as well as the standard Micro tuner, even though it's closer to the banjo pot

  • Overall excellent tuner; not as fast as the Snark but the low profile mount looks great.

  • So, I took it out of the box checked it out and then tried to decide where on my banjo was the best place to put it

Reviews around vibration (5.00 of 5)

  • Because the tuner is placed directly on a tension rod I believe that it picks up good vibrations from the head and rim which is another benefit
