Great gift for a Guitarist
My Hubby is a guitarist. He knows how to tune a guitar but I bought him this and he loves it. So easy to use and cuts tuning time in half. Perfect gift for any Guitarist.

Tunes up better than snark
Tuning up a guitar in the back of a dark bar can be a pain, often i found that clip on tuners like snark can vary greatly. With the R3 You can select your instrument, key, and then position the tuner on the peg and hit the string-- it will wind your string and do micro adjustments till you feel a buzz, go to next string and repeat- very fast. can also do other instruments like mandolin etc. just make sure you hold it firmly when tuning. Spot on for me. also has a winder feature for changing strings, and a metronome. very handy little device, been using it for gigs for 6 months now and works very well!

Right in tune
This thing does what it says it does it will keep you in tune no problem. It’s able to get the 45 and six strings tuned much easier than in particular the one and two strings. It seems to stretch the strings when tuning, and will take extra time to calibrate itself. A surprisingly helpful function is when changing strings and using it as a winder. The three different speeds are very handy. Make the process easier.

Great tuner with some weaknesses
Overall a decent tuner. I have a Korg TM-60 as well. The Roadie is slightly sharp compared to the Korg. Once in a while the Roadie seems to have a fit and will not calibrate. It will wind or unwind way out of tune. I'm guessing there was noise in the background it did not like. The winding/unwinding function works great. The controls can be a bit finicky getting it started. This tuner is not good at all for setting intonation. Nice that it is rechargeable. The sturdiness and size is perfect for carrying in your pocket. Great for beginners guitar players.

Cool little product
This is a cool little product. I really like it for my 12-string acoustic guitar. The good: easy to use. So many alternate tunings. Can be used with any stringed instrument. It is accurate. I don't know if it is perfect, but I compared it to my headstock tuner, and 3 of the strings are dead on, and 3 are just a little bit off. I don't know which tuner is wrong, and which is right, but they are incredibly close, and my ear can't tell the difference. Having a metronome included is cool. The Bad: It is a little awkward to use on the G,B, and E strings on guitars with headstocks with 3 pegs on either side of the headstock. G is the hardest to do, but you get used to it. I doubt there is any way they can improve that, so it isn't really a big negative for me. I haven't used the feature yet, but I think where this thing really pays for itself is alternate tuning. It doesn't require a lot of thought to quickly get to an alternate tuning. It does require some initial programming, but the menu is pretty intuitive, so not an issue. I haven't used the winding feature yet either, but I am sure that will be my favorite feature. The metronome is cool. I have only used it once, but I sat it on the stand next to me, and the vibration feature made it spin in a circle. I was afraid it was going to fall off the stand, but it just sat there and spun around. all in all, excellent product.

Buggy, impossible to read.
Nightmare to use. Tiny screen is illegible. After using this tuner for a week, the greatest flaw is the way it progresses to the next highest string without the possibility of stopping it or going back. I popped two strings being on on the wrong tuner, especially when the high tuners are on the other side of the head. I also wonder how accurate the tuning is. Lastly, it is useless for a 12 string guitar. It just stops working. In sum, it’s better than manual winding and tuning. I wish it fit the tuning keys better because it’s got enough torque and speed to bankrupt you. Edit. Since I received an email from the company complaining of my low rating, I will drill a little deeper into the tuning limitations. The motor is too fast and jerky to hit the note. It’s easier to use a clip on tuner and make small adjustments. The winding function is downright dangerous with the upper springs. It sings like a demon and you have to take it off before it pops a string. If you have guitars that are basically in tune, and the tuners are on the side facing the player, this gadget works fairly well for casual playing. But if you are restringing a guitar, it can’t find the right note.

Útil e inclusivo
Realmente es un dispositivo que ayuda a afinar la guitarra de las personas ciegas. Si eres profesor de guitarra te lo recomiendo para que tus estudiantes ciegos puedan tener acceso a este producto que les facilitará su afinación y también para las personas normovisuales.

Makkelijk ding met veel mogelijkheden
Werkt heel erg goed! Ik gebruik het om mijn ukeleles te stemmen. Batterij gaat heel lang mee. Zou 5 sterren krijgen moest het ook alle vormen van ukelele ondersteunen. Nu is het enkel mogelijk voor gewone of met lage G maar 5- of 8-snarige gaat nog niet. 12-snarige gitaar gaat dan weer wel tot grote vreugde van mijn vriend 😉. Geen spijt van mijn aankoop!

Muito útil!
O produto é muito bom. Há algumas questões que precisam ser apontadas: é preciso estar num ambiente silencioso para usar o afinador; regulei a sensibilidade do afinador para alta precisão para obter melhor resultado, mas com isso às vezes o afinador demora muito para chegar à frequência correta de algumas cordas. Por outro lado, é muito bom ter um aparelho que se encarregue da afinação; é ótimo usá-lo quando se troca todo o encordoamento, por causa da função giro rápido tanto para apertar quanto para afrouxar as cordas; a bateria tem ótima durabilidade; dá pra afinar vários instrumentos de cordas; ele muda automaticamente de corda quando se quer afinar todas as cordas do instrumento, mas também dá pra escolher qualquer corda avulsa para afinar sozinha.
