I searched the forums here and I couldn't find any info- on using a Tuner.
I was getting ready to practice the other day, and it just sounded terrible. I use the Fender tuner page to tune up. It was kinda buzzy on the high strings, so I didn't play too much that day. I do have hearing problems and may get tone deaf sometimes. I picked up the guitar the next day and tuned again, and several strings were off. Adjusted, and all sounded well.
Perhaps I should get one.
The Fender tuner item page lists a new one there. Are these good ones? I don't want to get too expensive. TY

I am a beginner. Sorry if I sound.......green

Any of those Fender clip-on models will get the job done.

I use one of the Snark clip-on models like shown in this link.

Just need to figure which would be cheaper with the shipping costs.

I use a Korg CA-30 tuner. You can plug right into it to get a real accurate reading.
