Korg Pitchblack Chromatic Tuner

by Seth Weber on November 16, 2009

So I got this tuner for my birthday from the bassist, Joe, and singer/guitarist, Bob, in my band, I actually just finally recieved it on Friday. Our band played for a college group retreat at Silver Mountain, (which is a very nice resort by the way).

I first plugged it in and turned it on and it worked great, I tuned my guitar quickly and easily with it, and I also looked at all 4 different display modes which are cool, I prefer mode 1, the most basic of the 4.
But after the band had started playing and I went to tune again, the low E and A strings wouldn’t pick up very well, it was like the band’s noise was interfering with those notes. My friend Corey who also has this pedal experiences this same problem.
This problem is kind of a nuisance, but I don’t think it will be too much of a difficulty really, because when I tune during a show its generally inbetween songs, and if it is during a song it’s usually the higher strings that need to be tuned anyway. This is about the only complaint I have with this pedal.

(That’s me with my pedal and a little too much fun with photoshop)

So Does it Rock? Yes, like a a swingset that wasn’t bolted together very well. Get it?
haha?
But really this tuner is a great tuner.
