Improved battery life; additional Sweetened Tunings for electric & acoustic guitar, bass, Dobro, pedal steel guitar,and electric violin.

The Peterson StroboStomp2 replaces the original Peterson StroboStomp; the world's first Virtual Strobe tuner in a stompbox. It features improved battery life; additional Sweetened Tunings for electric & acoustic guitar, bass, Dobro, pedal steel guitar,and electric violin; and offers four user-programmable Sweeteners.

The StroboStomp2's die-cast aluminum chassis features industry standard Neutrik 1/4" and XLR jacks, blue accent lighting and is finished in a Titanium Pearl coat that will keep it looking great even after years of getting stomped on.

100% True Bypass is accomplished via a rugged 3PDT stomp switch which allows the player to mute both regular and DI outputs to allow silent tuning to an incredible 0.1 cent accuracy. Open string Buzz Feiten settings for guitar, bass, and 12-string are included with drop-and capo-tuning transposition and, as if all that was not enough, a built-in active DI (with a power saving mode for longer battery life) for acoustic and bass guitarists. The StroboStomp2 is constructed from heavy-duty die-cast aluminum and even has a 9VDC output to power other pedals.

Accuracy is paramount for tuners and the Peterson is the most accurate I've evr had. Now my guitars are properly intonated. The difference is very noticeable. If all you need is a stage tuner then the Boss will work just fine but if you need something more accurate for intonating then the Peterson is the way to go.
Sound
I set mine for true bypass so sound isn't an issue.
Features
Tons of features - more than I need.
Ease of Use
Took a few times to get used to the strobe display. I don't have any problems with it now. Scrolling through the menu is simple enough.
Quality
It sits on my pedalboard so I don't foresee any problems with it.
Value
A little pricy but worth it for the accuracy and abundance of features.
