"This is the only tuner you'll EVER need."

Feature:
its a tuner... it tunes

Quality:
Boss is awesome. I don't have too many pedals but I've owned boss and digitech pedals and boss is about 2000 times better in terms of durability. It won't break... ever.

Value:
It's kinda expensive for just a tuner, BUT its accurate, its easy to use, it's very durable, and you'll never have to buy another tuner again.

Ease of Use:
I doubt you'll have to read the manual to know how to use this thing, but if you do, it is always there if you need it.

Overall:
Again, expensive but worth it. Also it's a chromatic tuner so you can tune to different tunings other than standard tuning, such as drop C. Buy it.

"buy it once and never regret it"

Feature:
Hey, it tunes the guitar! Those are all the features I need. It also offers two outputs (regular and bypass), various tunings (I just use chromatic), a strobe mode, changing root tone (I don't know why anyone would want to, but you CAN), etc etc... It's got a DC out, which is fine for a second pedal or two but which can introduce noise if you string the wrong pedals to it. For instance, if you put a Loop Station on this power supply, you'll get some noise. Still that's a buttload of features for a tuner. 10.

Quality:
It's a Boss! It's bulletproof! Not much more to say... 10.

Value:
Well, this is a one-time purchase... but it costs $100, which seems a bit steep. I have not regretted it but I wish it was cheaper! Still, if I lost mine, I'd buy another at the same price.

Desirability:
Just practical, not sexy. It's a tuner, dude.

Sound:
No loss of tone, so that's a 10.

Ease of Use:
One big-ass button! The mode, offset, etc are set-and-forget. You can use it right out of the box or read the manual (which is easy) and fiddle with the options. 10.

Support:
Never dealt with Boss.

Overall:
Just about perfect! 10!

From Our Catalog
The Boss TU2 Chromatic Tuner incorporates Boss's world-renowned TU-Series tuner technology into an ultra-convenient stompbox design. For the first time ever, guitarists and bassists can now tune their instruments with Boss accuracy with just a single stomp. No extra cables, no searching for your tuner -- it's right beneath your feet, ready for a tune up!

The World's Most Convenient Stage Tuner
The Boss TU2 Chromatic Tuner gives performing guitarists and bassists exactly what they're after: Boss tuning accuracy in a convenient, ultra-reliable stompbox design. Thanks to its 7-segment LED which displays note name and a bright 11-point LED indicator which indicates tuning discrepancy, the TU2 will always keep you in tune - even on the darkest of stages. Ensuring complete accuracy, the TU2 even goes a step further than other stage tuners by including a unique "stream" meter which slows LED movement as a note's pitch becomes more accurate (LED movement stops once tuning is accurate).

The TU2 offers a total of 7 tuning modes -- Chromatic, Guitar Regular, Guitar Flat, Guitar Double Flat, Bass Regular, Bass Flat, and Bass Double Flat -- which can be selected and easily stored in memory along with its display settings. A selectable Mute/Bypass instantly permits silent tuning with a single stomp, while the footswitchable Tuner Off mode preserves battery life when not in use. For performing guitarists and bassists looking to keep their instruments in tune quickly and reliably, there's no better solution than the TU2.

Features
