Should have picked this up sooner

No offense against my Snark, but the Roadie 3 sure makes my tuning easy. Even without that first cup of coffee for the day. The accuracy is spot on, with a pleasing "beep" and vibration when the string is tuned. The alternative tuning options are great also. I always needed two cups of coffee for this prior to getting the Roadie 3.

    Amazing how smart this tuner is. Takes a few strums of the strings to lock in. I went back and retuned the strings and there was very minor adjustments made to lock in again. This took me about 3 min total to tune a 6 string electric guitar. I'm on a sl3 jackson soloist so the locking tuners help.

  • Great for restringing & tuning my Nylon String Guitar

    I have a Taylor 414cen (Nylon String) and changing strings is a real pain until the strings are totally stretched into place. The Roadie 3 is a great tool for easily unwinding and tuning up to pitch, helps make this quicker & easier.

  • This is a great tuner.

    The first time I used it, it surprised me because you have to have a good grip, or it will torque your hand. After that I was golden. Tuning is much faster now. I haven't used the winder option yet but I'm sure it will be a time saver too.

    Works great and has all the tunings you could ever want. The only complaint I have is this does not work with mini-tuning keys. There is too much play to properly tune the guitar. Needs to adjust the current head, or some sort of attachment to fit all keys.
