From: Les from Hull Fully chromatic electronic tuners don't need to set to a particular tuning, and you can use them in a noisy session as they work on vibrations rather than a mike. I use an Intellitouch on my bouzouki and it works great. There are two models - with and without backlight. |

I have one and it isn't bad (and the backlight changes colour when you are in tune or close enough) but I think the intelli is more accurate. |

From: BanjoRay The Intelli's a better design than the Intellitouch, gives a more precise reading, is much lighter and can be left on your instrument without getting in the way, and costs half the price - everybody I know has bought one. They seem to have copied the Intellitouch idea, but made a much better job of it. Ray |

It is not small as the Intellitouch and similar and you have the cable to tamper with, but if you already have a good tuner could be a good solution. Ghiro |
