Editorial Review:
Stage tuner. Made by Fender.
Stay in tune at your gigs with this pro-quality stage tuner from Fender!
You can tell from this tuner's heavy, die-cast metal housing that this is a serious tuner. The PT-100's LED meter and on/off indicator allow for easy visibility from the stage floor. the PT-100 also has two output options, allowing the signal to stay on or be muted while tuning.
Customer Reviews:
Customer Rating: Summary: PT - 100 Comment: The PT-100 does exactly what it was built to do. Other people had problems with the plastic piece that you actually "stomp" on, just don't jump on it and it will be fine. It tunes very well, is very bright and readable, and is simple to use. I was worried that it wouldn't tune my bass but it does just fine. Awesome product! Customer Rating: Summary: Accurate, but breakable with design flaws Comment: It's the old addage, "you get what you pay for". I have to say this tuner is very accurate with quick response, very bright LEDs (even on bright days outside) and note/sharp readout (in the dark), but that's it. The pedal and mechanism are plastic and I've heard of too many breaking not long after purchase. Also, although the LEDs are easily seen in any conditions, the note indicator area can't be seen outside even on an overcast day. With the sun shining during a gig, forget it. This may or may not be important to some. That same sensitive bezel area is unprotected and can be damaged upon contact with something. Another poor design area.
I certainly wouldn't categorize the PT 100 as a professional quality product at all, and I suspect it's not meant to be. At street prices as low as $45, the PT 100 is probably something to consider for those on a budget who want an accurate "stomp" tuner for basic daily use....indoors. Just treat it with care and it may last a while. And from what I've heard, it may not. However, if you gig a lot and/or tour, I'd recommend looking elsewhere and spend a few more bucks for a better quality tuner such as the Boss TU2.
