For the gigging guitarist or bassist, the CHROMATIC TUNER TU300 is an absolutely essential piece of gear that goes above and beyond the capabilities of ordinary tuners. Most guitarists and bassists tune to standard tuning: (low to high) E, A, D, G, B, E for guitar and E, A, D, G for bass. Still others like to detune their instruments for access to lower notes and increased string flexibility. No matter what you prefer, the TU300 can accommodate. That’s because this crucial stomp box gives you three guitar modes (regular, flat, double flat), three bass modes (regular, flat, double flat) and a chromatic setting. Whether you stay in standard tuning, detune, or tune to an exotic tuning of your own design, the TU300 will get you there quickly and accurately. To begin tuning, simply stomp the TU300’s footswitch. It features a precise single-digit LED display to tell you what note it’s reading, and the 11-point stream guarantees accurate tuning from 438 Hz to 447 Hz. Plus it is bright enough to help you tune up in even the darkest club. The main OUT allows you to cut the signal to your amp while you tune, or you can send a constant signal from the BYPASS output. The status LED tells you when this box is activated and the solid electronic on/off switch maintains incredible signal integrity in bypass mode. You can power this pedal with a 9 V battery or a DC power supply.

About This Video

In this one I’m in the middle of finishing my Behringer PB1000 pedalboard build, so I grabbed the Behringer TU300 Chromatic Tuner and put it head-to-head with two tuners I actually use: the Korg Pitchblack (great live visibility) and the Headrush Flex Prime’s built-in tuner (which has improved a lot through firmware). First impressions? The TU300 looks remarkably like a Boss-style pedal, but it’s in that super lightweight plastic enclosure—if it’s not Velcroed down, it’ll blow away. I run through real-world tuning response on each string and compare how they “settle.” What I’m seeing across all three tuners is pretty consistent: an initial read that can be a couple of cents sharp, then it pivots a touch flat as the string tension releases and returns to its resting pitch. That’s where you’ve got to make the judgment call, and I still fine-tune by ear because the guitar isn’t perfectly in tune across the whole fretboard anyway. I also share my main tuning tip: always come up to pitch from below the note—don’t tune down from sharp—so you’re increasing tension on the capstan and locking the string in rather than leaving slack to slip later.
