Korg GT12 Review

History:

Purchase: I bought this unit at Dirk Witten in Amsterdam for around €80 (that's more in dollars, at the time). The store is nice by the way

Pros: I want a tuner with an analog display, because that's easy to read and is much more precise. Also, it "motivates" you to tune just right, while with slow LCD-displays, you tend to "aww just about right" Also, you get a lot of tuning options in a easy to control disc of some sorts. The tuner also has a AC-input and a Input & Output, so you can plug it into your (future) pedalboard. AND the greatest thing.....you can tune a ukulele! WOOOHOOO!!!



Cons: Well, it's fucking expensive, but hey, I wanted a analog display so they start at 80 and up, and also I buy gear thinking that I will still be using it for 5 years or longer.

GT12 Quality: Pretty good, no problems yet. It is probably not suited for kicking around and stepping on, but you can probably drop it once, maybe.

Korg Summary: I always had bad things with tuners and was alwaysirritated by the way they work, but this one has been really nice and performs great. But still, try not to depend to much on tuners, keep training your own ear.
