Snark SN5X Guitar Bass and Violin Clip On Tuner - Black

Great product , accurate tuning and so easy.. love it

Luckily for me, the posh tuner I wanted (4xthe price) was sold out everywhere. This one is excellent, easy to use and easy to see. It's ideal for rehearsals and gigs. The downside is the obvious fragility of the ball joints on each end of the arm... just don't sit on it or anything. I clip it on the carry handle of my amp when not in use so it doesn't get lost or trodden on. Is it accurate... I haven't tested it, but if it sounds ok to me it will sound ok to the drunken punter at the bar.

In the main a good product. Easy to read and is mostly accurate. Occasionally will not show string you are tuning and is a little fragile where the tuner meets the clip in a ball joint. Needs to be stronger.

Well, with 40,700 reviews why wouldn't you buy this tuner. I don't know what I can add but it's simple to use, just an on/off button it's fast and accurate. My old tuner had that matt plastic finish that gets sticky and feels awful after a while, must be sweat affecting this finish. The other Snark models have this finish and there are complaints about it. The SN-5X is the only model with this black gloss finish. Also, this model is a Chromatic tuner, which means it will tune almost all stringed instruments, not just guitar, bass and violin as it says. Shown here on my Ukelele and working well, the SN-6X for a Ukelele is just a money grabber, you don't need it !!!

This is really good for tuning a violin. It can clip onto the far end of the peg box and is adjustable enough to swivel it around to be visible. It shows you the nearest note and whether you are sharp or flat.... however it doesnt show which octave you're in - using a phone app that displays the frequency is vital to reach the right sort of range before using this meter. It also shows what notes you're getting when bowing and is a good way to see whether the instrument has untuned itself yet again. A quick twiddle with pegs or fine tuners will get it back to showing the correct note. It can also help with left hand finger placement which seems to be a bit of a mysterious dark art.... Brilliant device!

I’ve bought three of these now, though slightly different models. Excellent tuner, can be used for a bass guitar as well - I used one on a Hofner Violin Bass - some other makes of tuners don’t. Recommended.

Talking about a guitar tuner is not something I can do in detail, I have only been playing guitar for a short space of time. But from the tuners I have bought and used, this is easily my favourite hands down. I love the fact that the item is quite simply a case of turn it on and tune your guitar. No fiddly buttons etc like others. It is a very sensitive device so it picks it up the strings a lot better than the other tuners I have used, the other positive being that the screen is very bright so it is very easy to see in different enviroments. This guitar tuner is nothing particularly special, it is simple and does its job. For a tenner, I certainly can't complain.

Fits headstock well, bright and easy to use. Seems accurate. Much better than D'Addarrio I'm replacing that has a dull display and has its switch too close to the guitar head. The Snark has a longer reach and better switch. Not too expensive either.

Muy bueno, práctico y fácil de usar. La pantalla se ve muy bien y clara, quizá no se vea de un material muy fuerte pero es resistente y muy bien realizado. Respecto a la precisión también es muy bueno, lo comparé con el de mi hx stomp y me convenció mucho.

This tuner is great for my violin. It's very accurate and easy to use. It easily clips on the headstock of the violin. This tuner does not use batteries and is rechargeable. It keeps its charge for an appropriate length of time.

Ich mache es kurz: Kein Schnick und Schnack dran, tolles, kontrastreiches Display. Läßt sich gut anklemmen und in alle Richtungen bewegen. Für mich perfekt und klare Empfehlung. Ist nach dem Auspacken etwas glatt/schlüpfrig (dort wo man die Klemme bewegt) und flutscht einem leicht aus den Fingern. Dies legt sich jedoch im Laufe der Zeit.

This Snark rechargeable clip-on tuner is perfect - accurate, quick, and super easy to use. I love that it’s USB rechargeable, so no more replacing batteries. It’s simple to switch between guitars, and it locks onto the note instantly. Compact, reliable, and great value - highly recommended for any guitarist.

Good quality tuner delivered on time with good packing.
