collapse expand iconDescription

The Super Snark Air tuner is designed for musicians on the go. This discreet, rechargeable tuner hides behind your instrument's headstock, tuning with ultrafast speed and pinpoint accuracy. Whether you play guitar, bass, ukulele or any other stringed instrument, the Super Snark Air keeps you precisely in tune for optimal tone and performance.

Revolutionary Design Disappears Behind Your Headstock

The Super Snark Air features a compact, low-profile design that tucks neatly behind your instrument's headstock, completely out of sight. No bulky tuner clamp, no dangling cord—just a sleek, lightweight tuner discreetly doing its job. For gigging and traveling musicians, the space-saving design provides an ideal solution for precise tuning on stage or on the road.

Rechargeable Battery Powers Ultrafast, Accurate Tuning

An integrated rechargeable battery powers the Super Snark Air for up to 10 hours of lightning-fast, pinpoint-accurate tuning. Simply plug in the included USB cable to recharge—no batteries to replace or forgotten chargers to worry about. The tuner's advanced piezo sensor picks up each string's vibration with precision, allowing for quick and effortless tuning of any instrument with a fast, user-friendly display.

Tunes Any Stringed Instrument With Ease

Whether you play guitar, bass, ukulele, mandolin or any other stringed instrument, the Super Snark Air keeps you in tune with unmatched speed and accuracy. An ultrawide frequency range detects notes from E0 to G#8, covering the entire range of most stringed instruments. A bright LED display shows each string's tuning status at a glance, while an intuitive interface makes the tuner easy to operate for musicians of all skill levels.

Highly Portable for Gigging and Traveling Musicians

The Super Snark Air's compact, lightweight design provides maximum portability for musicians on the go. Tuck the tuner into your instrument case or gig bag, and take it anywhere without hassle. For stage use, the tuner's discreet form factor hides neatly behind your headstock, keeping your audience focused on your performance.

Great tuner, but has the same quirks as all Snark tuners

I recently purchased this product and I love how much more compact this is as compared to other Snark tuners. The only downside is that the tuner sometimes has a trouble on the low E or B strings on a bass guitar. I've notice all my Snark tuners suffer from this issue. Stil recommend.

Good but not great

First, it's definitely not worth the full price. Maybe a 25 to 30 deal but that's it. Second, turning it on and off is a bit wonky. It's a fairly sensitive tap on the logo with a slight delay that causes you to tap again but then sends the unit into a sideways orientation. This can be a bit annoying at times. It's a quick double tap to change it back but still, inconvenient when you're trying to quickly do it. The logo feels like it should be a button that can be depressed but instead it's just a sensitive protruding logo. Third, the screen orientation thing works, however, certain notes like b or d look very odd. For example the D looks like a zero and B looks like an eight. Had a quick glance it almost looks like the unit is malfunctioning until you realize that's just the font. All in all it's not a bad tuner, but it's definitely not worth the price. I've had every tuner snark has made, the older ones were better but deteriorated over time and literally deteriorated to a point of falling apart. The plastics are not meant to last more than a few years. So again these tuners are somewhat disposable. Which if you're going to be spending that much money on tuners you might as well spend $100 and get a permanent tuner pedal that's going to last forever.

    Pros: compact, accurate tuning Cons: doesn't hold a charge (had it less than a week, charged it several times overnight and still would only work for maximum of 15 minutes before dying), tricky to clip onto head stock in poor lighting, not as easy to use as normal Snark tuners.

    The Super Snark Air tuner has all of the features you expect out of your Snark tuner, but is rechargeable. It also clips onto and hides behind the headstock making it less noticeable. Highly recommend!

  • Quick, good for performing

    I use it on acoustic guitar and 5 string banjo. It acquires notes quickly, even the 5th string on the banjo which other tuners can take awhile. It's also bright and is visible outdoors. Rechargeable. All I want in a tuner.

  • Great tuners
