Male2: Welcome to GuitarLessons.com everybody. In this gear review, were going to be checking out Planet Waves Chromatic Pedal Tuner. If you’ve never seen one before, they're about 85 bucks. Their pretty cool, I’ll give you some pros, cons and some feature of it. Let’s take a look of the pedal first.
So this is the pedal right here. It comes with two modes, sweep and strobe. I despise the strobe mode so I’ll leave it on sweep mode and that’s what this looks like. See it has some pretty huge display and the lights are big on top to. That’s one thing that I like. I've been using a Bus 22 for a long time, that’s one thing I like, it’s the large display.
Another thing that’s really cool about it is it has two bypass and you can power your pedals daisy chain off it just like the Bus 22. That’s pretty cool.
Alright, let’s go over some of the pros and cons for this pedal. One of the cool things is that it comes with a little carrying case. If you don’t have the pedal boards so that it doesn’t get all mess up. Another cool thing is the big display, that’s nice. If you have a lot of gig during the dark or if you're eyes aren't sync anymore, that’s pretty cool. Two different modes. No calibration. So you can play with the pedal that’s out of tune, you can adjust accordingly for them.
Only cons I can come up with on this one, it’s a bit heavy. When you add it to a heavy pedal board, who wants to carry a heavy pedal board, buts cool. Does not come with a power supply, but what pedal tuner does nowadays, right? I have heard rumors that the little switch right here, that holds the pedal down can tend to break a lot. I don’t know if that’s true, but that’s one thing I've heard from the guys. But for all that’s worth, it will be road tested and only time will tell on that.
So go check this out if you are looking for a pedal tuner with a bigger display on it and something that’s accurate and has two bypass.
