So, if you are a guitar player that really wants to buy a strobotuner, skip the Stroboflip and go straight to the Peterson VSS-C Stomp Classic Strobotuner. Many guitar players would agree, though it might the extra features might be a bonus for other musicians. The downsides of plastic construction, a short warranty and oodles of programs that I do not need are enough to make me not want to buy this tuner. It is a nice tuner, though guitarist may want something beefier and simpler for stage use. The display is bright enough for most any environment, and it was able to pick up and hold notes better than any conventional needle-type digital tuner I have used.

This tuner has ¼-inch input and output jacks, as well as a built-in microphone on the face. Though it is plastic, it has a somewhat sturdy feel and Peterson backs it with a 1-year warranty, which surprises me because their other products have a 3-year warranty. The plastic chassis is disappointing at this price point, but it does include a mount so you can attach it to a mic stand or music stand, a clip-on tuning pickup, batteries (3xAA), an AC adapter and a 40-page owner’s manual. The tuner is compact, measuring 3½ by 3½ by 1½ inches, and it weighs in at a little more than ½ pound - it is certainly a compact package.
