  • Clip-On Tuner Review
Model: SN5X
I recently purchased the Snark Rechargeable Chromatic USB SN5X Clip-On Tuner for my guitar, and I couldn’t be happier with it. This tuner performs exceptionally well, providing professional-quality accuracy every time I use it. The compact size makes it convenient to clip on, and the rechargeable USB feature is a huge bonus—no need to constantly buy batteries. Pros: Professional-quality performance Great price and excellent value for money Very easy to use Accurate and reliable tuning Compact and portable design Cons: None Overall, this tuner is a fantastic deal. It’s highly accurate, reliable, and easy to use, making it a must-have for any musician. Definitely worth the investment! ... show more

  • Snark Still Makes the Best Tuner
Model: SN5X
I bought the Snark SN5X because I needed a precise, convenient tuner for doing setups on guitars and basses, and I remember having a Snark clip on tuner 10 years ago. They are still the best on the market for value. It’s very low profile and has a very easy to read display. It’s pretty much on par with the tuner in my DAW in terms of pitch accuracy (very accurate), and the lag in response of the display to real time pitch adjustments is hardly noticeable, which I found quite impressive. The plastic and build quality don’t seem to be too cheap, and the rechargeable battery is very convenient. Very portable, very precise, very convenient. ... show more

  • Works Great - Just Buy It
Model: SN5X
The reviews are legit. It does a great job to accurately read your tunings with a decently large screen. It clips on and adjusts easily to whatever angle you wish for viewing. It's worth the extra price over tuners with a button battery and since it's rechargeable even the initial savings will even out. Treat yourself to the best. ... show more

It's a great simple tuner. Awesome now that it's rechargeable. Nice and bright display that's easy to read. Easy to clip on the headstock and don't worry if you leave it on.

  • Good, Cheap, Does the Job
Model: SN5X
I played violin as a kid but stopped after high school. Recently I started playing again. I still have my old violin but I have no idea where my tuner went. I was going to stop by my local music store but thought I would check Amazon to see what they have first. Well I’m glad I did because they have a lot of them that you can choose from. This is the one I settled for. The price is decent and it had many good reviews. It doesn’t come with any detailed instructions but I thought its pretty straightforward. You just clip it onto your instrument. Turn it on and you can start adjusting the tuner with a string. It’s very very simple. I live with a few noisy roommates however so I’ll usually do it with my musicians ear plugs in (found them here on Amazon as well). I really like the display. It’s a good size and very easy to read. It also comes with a mini bag that you can use to store the tuner. It’s what I put it in when I’m not using it, that way I know for sure it’s not collecting dust. I’ve been using the tuner on and off for several weeks now and it’s still going strong. From what I understand, the batteries are generally good for many months so I don’t think I’ll have to switch them anytime soon. My only issue is that it seems kind of delicate. The entire device is pretty much plastic…but I guess I can’t expect that much for the price. It does what it’s supposed to do though so I guess that’s all that matters. Hopefully it will last me long enough. I’m thinking that if I’m careful and don’t drop it on the ground it will be fine. Still I am very happy with it. It’s accurate enough for my purposes (though I’m not a professional tuner or anything). ... show more
