There are many clip-on guitar tuners available on the market these days. The clip-on tuner basically works by detecting the vibration a result of the plucking of the string and measuring the frequency of that vibration.
Most tuners offer additional functions such as a tap tempo metronome, a transpose function, to be able to tune normally when using a capo. Some have a flat tuning function so the overall tuning of the instrument can be lowered.
As far as this writer knows there is only one tuner that comes with both flat tuning as well as a transpose function, the EMT-300 by Strumaz.
Strumaz worked with the manufacturer to develop both functions within the one tuner thereby offering the guitarist multiple alternatives for tuning.
You just want to play your instrument, never waste time messing around tuning. This clip-on tuner reacts rapidly and accurately letting you tune up in seconds, literally.
The 4 instrument modes have presets for Guitar, Bass, Ukulele and Violin. The Chromatic function enables you to tune any instrument. The tuner's good for both acoustic and electric instruments alike.
There is no need to plug in your electric to tune it, making it ideal for behind the scenes guitar technicians. 12 string guitars can be notoriously tricky to keep in tune, not with this little beauty. You'll be able to tune your 12 string nearly as quickly as your Six.
The strong, reliable clip secures it in position and is not known for breaking or falling apart, unlike some other tuners on the market. The tuner can be adjusted in 3 directions which enables you to locate it conveniently on your instrument. As the images demonstrate, you can even conceal it behind the head of your guitar. Making it very easy to check and re-tune in between songs.
As the tuner functions by sensing the vibration of the instrument. There is no mike so that it's not interfered with by ambient sound. You are able to tune up in the noisiest of venues.
There are four selectable flats for flat tuning that is used in any of the instrument modes. The capo transpose function is in the Chromatic mode. You just need to match the number of flats to the capoed fret and then see standard tuning on the tuner E,A,D,G,B,E.
