Reviews around tool (5.00 of 5)

  • Love my Roadie 2 tuner plus with the app this is the most useful guitar tool I have ever come across
  • The detail that was put into this incredible tool is mind-boggling
  • This is a very useful tool I would recommend to anyone who tunes their guitar(s) frequently.
  • If they can figure how to make a product that doesn't break every few weeks, then it could be a great tool.
  • 130 is pretty steep though even though it’s a great tool

Reviews around unit (5.00 of 5)

  • The unit is a nice to have, not a need to have and it really is nice to have.
  • I highly recommend this unit, and I've been playing professionally over 40 years now.
  • The first Roadie 2 unit I received worked close to as advertised, but it was immediately apparent that the main button used to operate the device was not working properly
  • I really like the unit a lot and would recommend it for your gig bag!

Reviews around ability (5.00 of 5)

  • I love the ability to add different tuning and have them available within a couple of touches
  • BUT the ability to create custom tunings and even tempered tunings is superb.
  • It had more problems with lower notes on mandolin as well as on the 12string.

Reviews around product (4.33 of 5)

  • First off, I was so excited when this product came out, I play guitar, banjo, ukulele, and mandolin, so I figured this product was perfect for
  • Sometimes it would go the wrong way and insist on tightening a string to the breaking point, other times I would play a note 10 or 12 times before the Roadie would recognize it and attempt to tune the guitar, and now the Roadie internal gears just spin around without turning the tuning pegs until it finally says "wrong string."I wasted a lot of time and money on an unreliable product that lasted a little over the 30 day return period, so I am not happy.
  • This is a great product still with a few upsetting bugs
  • Overall the product feels cheap and the motor is a bit weak.
  • Thank you again SO much for making such a wonderful product and for being so attentive and helpful

  • its super cool and convenience to use, i can down and up tune the guitar on the go within 1 min and its done

  • Header says "Roadie 2 - Standalone Automatic Smart Guitar Tuner for all String Instruments"Well, except BASS!Title clearly mis-leads.
  • But the Roadie 2 tunes my guitar perfectly within 30 seconds every time, no hassle

Reviews around penny (4.10 of 5)

  • If you get this be sure to download the app also, one thing the app did for me was being able to set the tune to top down (high E to low E) vs the default low to high.
  • The Roadie 2 does a poor job of tuning the Low E, A and D strings, this even after the latest firmware updates.

Reviews around tuner (4.08 of 5)

  • The Roadie 2 does a poor job of tuning the Low E, A and D strings, this even after the latest firmware updates.
  • They do make adapters for odd size tuner heads and small spacing between runners
  • Header says "Roadie 2 - Standalone Automatic Smart Guitar Tuner for all String Instruments"Well, except BASS!Title clearly mis-leads.
  • The only thing I don't like is it's a bit awkward to use on the top three tuners of Gibston-style headstocks, but that's a flaw of the guitar, not the tuner
  • I also checked this against my best Boss tuner, and it's spot on.

Reviews around thing (4.03 of 5)

  • The thing gets super confused on the low E string
  • No joke this thing is amazing
  • I’ve been tuning by ear and with tuners, but this thing is three times more accurate than the human ear
  • This thing is perfect if you like alternate tunings or if you just can't stand it if you are a speck out of tune.
  • And with the improvements they are planning, it could be the best thing in your gig bag next to your axe.

Reviews around gadget (3.86 of 5)

Reviews around tune (3.61 of 5)

  • It does not have the power to complete the fine tuning adjustments on my guitar with slotted head stock tuners.
  • Smooth tuning and quick action keeps you on the go, ready for anything that comes your way, mainly cool Rocking and Rolling or what ever your style...this can get you there
  • For starters, I’ve never had an issue tuning my guitars before
  • so I am in a LOT of situations where tuning is critical
  • Obviously it's a bit of a luxury, you can get free iPhone tuning apps (or however you tune) and turn pegs yourself, but this is cool.

  • The Roadie 2 does a poor job of tuning the Low E, A and D strings, this even after the latest firmware updates.
  • If you get this be sure to download the app also, one thing the app did for me was being able to set the tune to top down (high E to low E) vs the default low to high.
  • Pros-tunes accurately-tunes quickly-supports many instruments and tunings (be warned some tuning pegs many not for the device)Cons-faulty hardware and programming-not worth 120+ dollars in current state
  • However there as some programming flaws as well as design flaws that could be improved
  • It had more problems with lower notes on mandolin as well as on the 12string.

Reviews around string (1.83 of 5)

  • Not working right or of the box, says wrong string all the time and tunes way high or way low until I physically pull it away.
  • Initially they’re was a lock up problem when the Wrong string was plucked for the correct selection and the R2 would error and lock up
  • when i'm tuning to drop tunings, it'll often tell me "Wrong string" when I am on the correct string, sometimes it will try to completely unwind my string when tuning, sometimes it will make a tuning correction and then go the other way and completely reverse what it just did, sometimes it just can't make up it's mind on if the string is in tune and just continuously sit there making adjustments without ever getting in tune
  • However, it then did not recognize my A and D strings as being the correct strings and it wouldn’t tune them.
  • It said it was tuning the wrong string and to make sure I connected the roadie to the correct peg
