I bought this tuner to replace the D'Addario one I have which doesn't work well with my low B string on bass. The LEKATO Tuner works perfectly on bass and has multiple other instrument selection plus other cool features such as selectable Hz range and tone generation. I really love this tuner and it was under $20!

Good size, intuitive to use, good instructions included and item well packaged. Buttons placed in a way that makes sense. The screen is bright (but I have not tried it outdoors in sunlight yet) and easy to read. The metronome is helpful when practicing my ukulele to help build the habit of steady rhythm (I tend to slow down or sometimes will start to rush through a song). I thing it is very affordable for all the features it includes. The packaged arrived when expected. I would buy from this seller again.

I'm only learning to play so I'm not sure about how sharp the tuning is but its better than my phone apps, easy to use and the metronome is really fun with its different counts. I'm giving 5 stars because I have nothing bad to say and enjoy using it in my learning experience.

Nice tuner. Easy to see even for fellas with old dad eyes. Tested against a couple other tuners I have and it did better than every headstock tuner I own, plus it matched the precision tuning I get with my expensive pedal tuner.

I do not use these types of tuners for their accuracy, I use them when I am on the road because they are cheap and if I accidently leave one behind, I did not lose much. With that being said, I am please over all with the accuracy, nothing special but good enough. The bright large (large for a clip on) display is a big plus.

The tuner doesn't "lock in" on the pitch like other electronic tuners I've used, but rather wobbles up and down around the pitch. But the metronome is great to have for clipping on to the headstock.

Works very well, long battery life, easy to change battery, only complaint is the metronome was very loud. Other than that, very good product, I recommend it!

I love that I can finally have a hybrid metronome tuner to clip onto my guitar. I ordered both this and the fender rc-2 tuner because I wanted to ensure I both had a good product and at the very least a functioning clip-on metronome lest this tuner be sub-par, and this gave me the opportunity to do a side-by-side comparison.In general, this tuner had around the same opinion as to how flat or sharp I was as the fender tuner. They agreed when I was in tune. This tuner seems to be a little less sensitive to later sustain. After hitting a note, the fender tuner was updating around for around 1.5 times as long as this when tuning the D string. That said, this tuner still reads off plenty of your sustain.The metronome works great, I don't know what to say beyond that. As long as it can accent the first beat of a measure and then count off eigths and sixteenths when I want it to, that's good enough for me.I'd be happy to leave home with just this tuner.

Received this on time and in new condition. Installed supplied battery and it works fine but the back door for the battery compartment rattles loud enough to be heard. I took a 1mm X 17mm rubber washer and laid it on the back of the batter to fix it. Shouldn't have to do that but you get what you pay for. Has an auto shutoff after idle time. Will NOT fit nicely on all guitars. I have a 12 string Breedlove that barely has the space to clip on. It fits on any martin type head stock, but if your guitar does not have an unimpeded space of about 1" then I wouldn't get a clip on. No one makes what I really want. I was looking for one that could be positioned behind the head stock instead of out front where everyone could see it. I am right handed. If I clip it on to the end of the headstock and tilt it up I can almost rotate it enough and get it aligned correctly while I'm in playing position. To get it perfectly aligned you can angle the clip a little and hope it doesn't slide off the headstock while playing. It needs some type of a pivot (ball and socket type?) in the middle of the tuner's back. If I want to position it behind the headstock out of sight from audience it would need the screen to be electronically flipped 180 degrees (like your cell phone). That would likely make this expensive, but the problem is what it is.The clip needs to be long and slim clamp (like some capos) and if it could fit under the strings of the headstock it would allow more alignment options. The one provided is stubby and spring tension is not adjustable so as the spring wears and gets weaker, I have to wonder how well it will grip in a few years but this tuner doesn't cost a whole lot so if it lasts 3 years I'm OK with it.The display is nice amber and turns bright green when you are in tune. The display does not adjust for brightness. The buttons are fine once you get the hang of using them.I like the fact you can change A4 frequency (440Hz standard to 432Hz. You can also adjust it for flat tuning which is nice.The metronome is a nice feature to have for me. Its very adjustable. I'm not a beginner, but when I'm learning a song it helps and I can note it on the tab sheet for later. The metronome was the main reason I went with this make and model.Some of the other tuners I looked at looked like an ugly appendage or water pressure valve on an expensive guitar but I could not find a low profile with metronome and flip screen. I have a few guitars and on the martins the headstock is crowded (compared to say a fender headstock) and not many places you can clip this on. Because Gibson and Fender have rounded areas on their headstocks there are more alignment options available.I looked at in-hole tuners as they would be better located, but I don't want any obstructions or rattling mounting.UPDATED Mar 2021:Ive had this for a year and I would up it to 3 and a half stars if I could. I've grown used to its positioning as they have become almost as cool as they are necessary, but I did not think it would last a year and it did. Its also used on a mandolin (Violin setting) and a 12-string. Its accurate and fast. I don't use the metronome as often as I did at first now but it is easy enough to navigate the buttons. I have not replaced the battery yet and glad it has an auto shutoff when not feeling vibration as I often leave it on while playing and forget to turn it off when not playing. If it lasts another year I'll update and change rating to a four star.UPDATED to 4 stars 5/27/21: I've grown to like this the more I use it. I still wish it could be positioned behind the headstock on a Martin, but I've grown used to that. Its perhaps a little too easy to confuse as to what string I'm tuning - especially alternate tunings and back again. I keep looking for the perfect tuner but this one is still working fine.Back to 3 stars 2/12/21It will no cooperate if you tune with acoustic amp. It does not discriminate well when you are playing with others. So it does not work for "tuning on the fly" while others are playing.Update 1/23/21: I've owned two. the 1st one has a broken clip and useles as of a couple of weeks ago. Lost a pad. The second one has a weird problem. At 440hz it seems to tune just fine until I start playing on a harmonica and its in a different key, down almost a whole step i'd think one time. Its happened more than once within the last year. I have to take out the battery and put it back in. Then it might work as its supposed to. I liked these initially but durability knocks it down from 3 to a 2.

So far it has worked perfectly. It's easy to do what you what if you follow the directions. It also seems to fit nicely on every instrument I have tried it on. I think it's a good value for the money and competes very well with anything near the price range.

Great little tuner! Backlight is Orange till u hit tune, then it turns Green. It has 5 instrument settings (guitar, bass, violin, ukulele, chromatic) but with most of these clip ons, Bass is somewhat difficult- I held it against the body for bass and worked perfectly!! Lots of options for a $10 tuner! A lot more than the Snark.. Not only the 5 instruments but has metronome that changes tempo, notes (quarter, 1/8, 1/16, etc..) only thing this thing doesnt do is strobe but has a needle which is just as good as strobing.. hope this helps!
