I bought a new Snark and it is fine - it was to replace a black, square tuner which is like a black and white American "B" Movie where the action in the car is heating up - like the speedometer needle - jumps between 40 and 80 m.p.h.type of thing
I honestly - honestly commend a tuning fork - they are SO dependable - I love 'em - I have a couple in "A" - I love and believe 100% in them. Fabulous when you put new strings on.
