"Great Tuner"
Sound
see below
Features
This tuner is now 8 years old and has never given me any problems. The tuning is perfect. I dopped it 100 times with no problems noted. Battery life exceeds a year and I use it every day. This is a reasonably priced workhorse that will totally satisfy you unless you do a lot of alternative tunings.
Quality
It still looks as good as the day i bought it.
Manufacturer Support
Never needed support.
The Wow Factor
Practical and necessary accessory for any guitar player.
Musical Background:

"Very good tuner for the money"
Basically a very good inexpensive tuner. It works very well with acoustic guitar, but I seem to have problems getting my electric in tune, but maybe my electric guitar is the problem.

"DOn't Bother. Move one to something better...."
Verified Customer
zZounds has verified that this reviewer made a purchase from us.
I have a couple of other tuners and I only use this one as an emergency back up. Needless to say, I'm shopping for a better back up than this one. GT-3 is quite disappointing.
Sound
It doesn't make any sound of its own but the bypass will alter the original sound greatly in a negative manner.
Features
It is small enough to be taken anywhere and takes up very little space on pedalboards. Faster and better pitch/LED response would be great. The LEDs wonders quite a bit.
Ease of Use
LED/pitch response is rather sluggish and needs certain amount of patience to get instruments in tune with this tuner. I recall the official spec of +/- 3 cents accuracy and combine that with the built in margin of LEDs, instrument may be quite a bit out of tune if one is not careful.
Quality
While the tuner being plastic, overall build of the tuner is good.
Value
I would recommend springing for a tuner with a better spec. Korg makes other tuners that are much better in every aspect.
Manufacturer Support
Sluggish e-mail response.
The Wow Factor
Why would anyone want something that's marginal? The answer is "nobody".

Korg GT3 Tuner Customer Review
Works ok with a guitar plugged in but the mic doesn't work that great with acoustic guitars or mandolins.
