Intelli IMT 900 on Board Tuner
The tuner clips onto your headstock with an easy to read display. Now there can be any noise going on around you and you can still tune. It works really well, I use it. The contact of the tuner blocks out the sounds of other instruments so you can tune quicker, anytime, anywhere! It has a swivel feature too so you can place it any angle that is easiest for you to read too. I recommend these. I am using one presently. Ross Nickerson
Note, this is the same tuner as the tuner that was sold under the name Intelli recently. The Intelli name has been discontinued but the TT-500 tuner is identical and manufactured by the same company as the Intelli's were. |
I recommend these. I am presently using one and prefer them over the Intellitouch, Korg attachable tuners or whitman Mini-Tuner. The other tuners are quality but I am presently proffering these since they came out and they are deal too.
