The Unitune arrived today- I'm as impressed with Sweetwaters packaging as I am the tuner

Its fairly small box (2 1/8x3 3/8x1 1/4) came in a 9x11x4 box with jumbo bubble wrap on top -

Here is a comparison of the two tuners

Garland, Have you checked any settings on the UniTune?

It may be possible to change the amount of time before it auto shuts off......maybe. Worth a looksee if that short shut off time is annoying you.

Otherwise, looks kinda cool.

Garland,

There is two very similar tuners to yours, one of them you can strum all six strings together and it shows if any string needs tuning, clever electronic gadgets nowadays, makes me tuning fork look a little bit dated, but the battery never goes flat.

Didn't work very well. Decided to just keep stabbing my carrots with it instead.

You're a man (submerged, violent rejectionist tendencies) that I can identify with when it comes to certain vegetables.

When I first started playing guitar I would turn on the radio and tune to a song I knew had a low E . then got a pitch pipe never cared for that. then an A 400 tuning fork used that for decades. Then my wife got me a old Korg tuner and I used that. I got used to that type so later I got a Boss that has flats and 5 different tunings the common ones, it still works then I decided to get a few newer Korgs a chromatic and one that just offers A400 and a half and full step flat. I just like the needle and the all have a sharp/flat light. I never cared for clip on tuners I use what I'm used to. Many like clip on tuners I just never cared for them.

Derick, TonyKgull, aristophon, blues90, this unitune is harder to turn on than others I've had, the power button is very small and flush with the rest of the enclosure- and it doesn't swivel- a poster on the *other* message board said they are programmed to shut down after 3 or 4 minutes- my others shut down if just sitting not doin anything- I'm still undecided about whether I like it or not
