I know this is not about fender... but this is my only forum.

Anyway...
I went to buy a new tuner becouse I lost my old one... I had a korg, don't remember the model... And I am a big fan of boss and their stompboxes so I went looking for a Boss tuner and I found 2 kind of cool... but there was a difference of almost $100 between them... so ask to the guy on the store what was the diference between them and he told me that one was way more accurate than the other one... sooo... I'm not really sure if spending in a good tuner or... just buy the cheaper...

sorry for my english... and thanks for the help!

The best Stomp Box tuner I have ever used is the ST-200 from Sonic Research.
Check out the specs, I don't think the Boss tuners you are looking at would be anywhere near accurate as the ST-200, Made in USA, great value for money. The listing below is from the manufacturer, I ordered/bought mine from "Elderly Instruments" in the US.

A good tuner worth the expense ; more accurate AND faster response = easier to get guitar in tune.

I have the Boss TU-12 H and the Peterson VSII, this last one is the best of all .

The Boss is very good for normal guitar tuning. The Peterson is a must if you fix many guitars for intonnation.
