Re: Tuners

I have a Sabine STX 1100 Ive had it for over 12 years and it is very reliable it uses both battery(9volt) and converter,it has a nice feature you can calibrate it to another instrument that is not 440 hrtz(standard pitch) there are some new tuners that are less expensive and work just as well I think I paid around 60 dollars new back in 1995 smile

I second the Sabine. I have an ST-1000. bought it in 1985. Still works great. What more could you ask for?
