The Seiko SAT800 heavy duty chromatic tuner is designed and enhanced for use on the road! Its durable aluminum front, heavy duty body and shock-absorbing non-slip rubber bumpers make its tough enough touring. The ample backlit display and large rubberized buttons make it the perfect partner for fat fingered rockers in dark venues. The heft and heavy duty design of this tuner make it about 1/3 larger than your average box tuner, i.e., slightly larger than a Blackberry.
We've been using this one in our studios and classrooms and it's a refreshing change from the tiny buttons of most tuners. Just poke 'n tune! And, yep, it picks up acoutic guitar strings with ease. The non-slip rubber bumpers greatly enhance stability on music stands and help protect it when a butterfingered student drops it. If you use it on the floor or pedalboard, the extra heft and grippy rubber help keep it in place.
Features include mode indication, pitch indication, tuning indication, note and octave indicator, built-in mic and in/out jacks. The chromatic Seiko SAT800 offers 3 tuning methods including: auto-chromatic mode, manual-chromatic mode, and sound generation mode. Uses two AAA batteries (included)
