Is this a good tuner for open G, open D, etc

It's chromatic and shows the note actually played. As long as you know the notes you want, it is incredibly accurate.If you want one that displays open tunings in the way that the early tuners only displayed E-A-D-G-B-E when "guitar" was selected, this doesnt' have modes for open tuning and won't do that to my knowledge.

Tune each string within each open tuning you are in, not the whole tuning of 6 strings together.

I've used it on the traditional E, A, D, and G strings of a bass, but I must say, I've never tried to tune that low B with this tuner.

I'm quite sure it is a digital tuner though I am not positive. I have it at another site and will be at that site on Saturday. I could check for you. Let me know. It works very very well. And the price is simply unbeatable.

I haven't had much luck with a guitar tuner, butI've found a chromatic tuner does work.

It shows you exactly what ever key you want by just tuning and watching as it goes down or up Half or whole. Example E down to D#. Very easy tuning. Heres a site you can check, www.guitartricks.com/forum/showthread.php?t=39194

It works just fine with my tenor ukulele. It's chromatic so it'll give you the note for whatever tuning you want to use. Hope this helps.

Hi Cynthia, the notes are G, D, and F. I've not checked it with a tuner, but it sounds in perfect pitch to me. I posted a video review if you'd like to hear it!

It's good however I suggest using something online anyways that replicates a real bass sound. This is an excellent tuner. I have had mine for 6 years at least and still am using the same battery.

Very sorry that I can not help you. I am trying to learn to play the guitar. I have no knowledge of tuners. I saw the Snark advertised in the net and bought It at a venture.

You can set this tuner to each instrument or leave it on chromatic. Make sure if you set it to an instrument when you turn it off or on push button for a 1 1/2 or 2 second count to go back to same setting, also has a metronome built in to keep you on time If you deside to use it. It has more features in a small package. Make sure you read the instructions as it has buttons on the back as well as the front. It is well worth buying and you will not have to say I wish I had a tuner like Jim or joe because his is better and does more. I love mine. And my father loves his.

As long as you have the tuner calibration set correctly it should tune any instrument. The calibration default is 440 which is standard for just about all stringed instruments. I use it to tune a banjo at 440 and a bagpipe at 475+ and it works great. It is one of the best tuners that I have ever use and being a chromatic tuner makes it very versatile.

Not a good idea. The tuner doesn't respond to any of lowest 15 white and black keys below C2, which is two octaves below C4 (middle C).

The tuner has a chromatic mode that shows the closest note including sharps and flats. It also has modes for a half and full step down from the standard guitar tuning.

Have used it on tenor banjo, guitar, bouzouki, mandolin. It works fine on any stringed instrument. Very accurate and is one of the few tuners that will work well on the low strings.

Yes, I would check the instructions for recommendations on distance so you don't "overwhelm" the tuner. I've used it on both types of guitars without a problem.

Can;t say for sure, but my unit is only a couple months old and the volume knob is giving problems, sometimes when you try to raise or lower the volume, the unit goes silent and the the volume comes in. The tuner is also very poorly designed, next time i think i;ll go for a digital tuner

Yes, but the best results will be obtained by taking it to a competent dyno tuner. I have substantial experience with several different tuners/programmers including the V&H; Fuelpak, the Power Commander III and V and the Mastertune. The Mastertune, to me, is the least user friendly but allows you to adjust an impressive number of variables.
