Negatives first:
1. The manual (well, minuscule piece of paper with even more minuscule type) is a string of typos, grammatical errors, spelling mistakes, etc, and in 2019 there really is no longer any excuse for this.
2. The manual also contains inaccurate information, suggesting that the LCD turns orange when flat/sharp but close to in tune, before turning green when completely in tune. It does no such thing. At least mine doesn't.
And at £5.99 that's all the negatives I feel justified in raising. Everything else seems to be fine at this price. Tuning appears to be accurate (I will test it against my Boss TU-3 when I get a chance). The convenience of having it mounted on the headstock is worth every penny and the fact that it will tune my basses and various 6-strings makes it doubly useful. I have previously used the TU-3 and a couple of iPhone tuners (Boss and Fender) as well as the tuners built into my DAWs, but at this price I am seriously considering buying one for each guitar (which means I will need to buy a further seven). They are much more convenient to use and I consider them to be at an almost disposable-level price.
Recommended.
