![]() The ultimate test came for me when I checked my guitar’s intonation. ![]() I have always set up all my guitars myself. And even though I always thought I knew what I was doing, I now feel a bit silly to have relied on the +/- 1 cent accuracy of the Boss TU-2 at one point. The ST-200 will reveal the inferiority of less accurate tuners once you conduct your own intonation test. Simply set your intonation with one such pedal, then plug into a Turbo Tuner and compare on open note to its octave at the 12th fret. The extreme accuracy for setting up your guitars makes the ST-200 an essential pedal if you’re serious about the intonation and playability of your instruments.īut that’s not all. The Turbo Tuner has 6 preset banks on front, easily selectable and programmable with two buttons on the top surface of the pedal. The Chromatic preset always allows for chromatic tuning while any of the other 5 banks may be configured for open and temperament tuning for instruments with up to 9 strings. I was amazed by the deep, yet simple customization of the Turbo Tuner once I delved in and started making presets. The only limitation I found was in that the reference pitch and flat settings are set globally and not per preset. I actually called the customer service number in the manual to ask about this and a few other things. Someone was on the phone to help me in less than a minute! Sonic Research took my call seriously and showed great interest in the possibility of improving their products. ![]() The extremely knowledgeable and friendly service rep even gave me an ingenious workaround.
