The GT-120 -- A New Style of Needle-Type Meter
The needle-type meter that has enjoyed enduring popularity for its clear visibility and stable detection is now available in a handy size, with the meter located at the top of a sleek black aluminum body. The backlit LCD screen also shows the calibration setting, flat mode, note name, and the remaining battery life. Flat (b) and sharp (#) LEDs light to indicate pitch drift or perfect tuning in a way that's easily visible even on a dimly lit stage. A large dial makes it easy to choose the mode you need to use. Using the stand located on the back, you can conveniently place the GT-120 upright on your amp or other surface while practicing.

2 Different Tuning Modes; Auto and Manual
The GT-120 supports seven-string guitars and six-string basses. In Auto mode, string names are automatically detected and the LCD automatically shows the name of the note that's closest to the pitch you play. In Manual mode, you first choose the name of the note (C-B) you intend to tune.

Support for Open Tunings and Flat Tunings
The GT-120 supports open tunings often used with slide guitar or finger picking, with five tunings that include open D/E/G/A as well as DADGAD. The flat tunings are also supported, down to a maximum of four semitones below standard pitch.

Built-In Mic Allows Tuning of Acoustic Guitars
Since a condenser mic is built into the GT-120, it's also easy to tune acoustic guitars on the fly.

Adjustable Calibration
The calibration can be adjusted in a range of 438-445 Hz to accommodate a variety of standard pitches. With its wide detection range of A0C8, the GT-120 lets you tune to any song or key.

Reference Pitch
The GT-120 can play a reference pitch in a range of C2 (65.41 Hz)-C7 (2093 Hz), letting you tune using your ears while you also watch the meter. The large speaker provides extra volume.

Long Battery Life
The GT-120 is designed for an extended battery life of approximately 100 hours when running on two AAA batteries. It can also be used with an AC adaptor (sold separately). zZounds is an authorized dealer of Korg products.

Customer Reviews
4.5 out of 5 (11 ratings) Rate and Review This Product
zZounds has verified that this customer bought this product from us. "Awesome little tuner!"
Sound: Unless you are tuning using the sound feature, there really isn't much sound to it, which is a good thing, doesn't produce a hum when you have your guitar connected to your amp through it. Feature: This tuner really has just about everything you could want on it, chromatic, 4 semitones to step down to, adjustable calibration if the cent meter is off, 6 common tunings for quick selection, automatic and manual, it's all pretty much there. The mic pics up fairly well and is just about as accurate as when you plug a line in to it. Ease of Use: The Korg Gt-120 does just about everything but twist the tuner heads for you. It's a tuner...not too much to any of them really. Quality: It feels decent, plastic body. I'd be nervous if my big butt every stepped on it though, I think it'd be toast. The stand for it doesn't really put it at the best angle and it is a little hard to read outside. But the backlight is available to turn on or off. Value: I'd easily plop down $50 bucks for this tuner any day. Compared to $20 bucks for the cheaper basic Korg, I'd say it's well worth the money. Comes with a nifty case. Manufacturer Support: Never had to use it, but its a Korg, so I'm sure it'd be a fast response if I needed it. The Wow Factor: I have it, but had wanted it for awhile. I had my hopes up when it arrived and wasn't let down. Overall: Just get it...you know you want to.

1. We offer the most flexible payment plans in the biz

zZounds offers a number of different installment payment plans that make it affordable and convenient for you to get the gear you really want today, without racking up risky credit card debt.

Other stores offer house credit cards that require you to fill out an application and pass a credit check--and, if you qualify, leave you vulnerable to exorbitant interest charges once the initial promotional period ends. zZounds payment plans are easy to get and simple to use; plus we'll never charge you interest!

5. Our customer service is consistently rated the best

zZounds customer service is consistently rated at or near the top on every major comparison shopping website--probably because we only hire experienced musicians with outstanding customer service skills to work in our call center, and they don't work on commission. To us, this is our most meaningful measure of success. zZounds has served over a million customers since 1996, and they're the only critics whose reviews really matter to us.
