| Farley Pockettones Banjo Tuner was a dud. Ordered one for me and one for a gift. Neither worked. Complete waste of money. |

| Just a few words on the Farley's Pocket Tones Banjo Tuner. Don't wast your money. I sent mine back after 5mins of trying it. The tones arenot accurate. |

No banjoist should buy a tuner that is not chromatic. There are hundreds of tunings for the five string banjo, especially for old time players. A tuner that only tunes to G is useless. Even bluebgrass players will sometimes play in D Reuben and other tunings. Old time banjoists typically play in g modal, c, cc,ccc, variations of the d tuning, and as well as F tunings. So a tuner that is only G is useless.
Goldtone and others make tuners that have the g tuning but can switch to chr0omatic. I also tend to think that tuners that have a dial are more useful. I go with the basic Korg tuners that cost little and do a lot.
Lately I have been attracted to snap on tuners because a tuner that just listens like the one displayed here is pretty useless if you are in a band and all the other instruments are tuning up, let alone a jam or a banjo class. The smallKorgs do come with connection to attach a pickup. |

| This tuner was not what I expected. The size is perfect for compact storage, but the tones produced are not accurate and made tuning a banjo extrememly difficult. We will be purchasing a regular sized chromatic tuner that will give better results. Chromatic tuners can be used for various stringed instruments, so if you have guitars and banjos, the chromatic may work for you also. |
