What a disappointment. tuner is not nearl accurate to do buzz feiten tuning or intonation which it is reported to do well.I managed to totally screw up the factory intonation on my new Anderson Cobra by following the led readouts which are at best +/- 5 cents. That's 10 cents error compared to the plus or minus 1/2 cents to do buzzz feiten intonation correctly. I was able to move my string saddles substantialyy without any change in the tuner readout. My $10 dollar seiko tuner proved much more accurate. WTF?? i am returning this piece of overhyped garbage

I did not notice any extra accuracy compared to the other LED tuners. As luck would have it, I bought this before I found out about the new Peterson tuner, our bass player has one and its what I use at gigs and for recording. The DT-7 is small and compact, but the Peterson is in another league when it comes down to accuracy.

I have had several Korg tuners, they last for a few years,and they are very convenient to use.

If there is customer support for this, I haven't had occasion to use it.

This tuner is a little too bulky and expensive for what it delivers in terms of accuracy, the Feiten offsets are built in, but I can't imagine a tuner like this being able to tell a Feiten from a normal tuning, it just doesn't seem "fine" enough.

Though the manual is quite descriptive, you really don't need it. Just switch to chromatic and tune, or if you have a Buzz Feiten system, just switch over from chromatic to "BF". Just as easy, and accurate as any strobe tuner out there.

Makes your guitar sound excellent, tunes dead on tuning.

Excellent. This tuner is very heavy duty, not one of those little garbage tuners. I would definitely take it to a gig without a backup tuner, not a doubt in my mind.

I won't rate this, I've not had to deal with Korg yet. That just says that their products are dependable when you don't have to contact them over any issues.

This tuner is top of the line at an excellent price. It's as accurate as any strobe or rack tuner out there. I compared with several different other products, i.e.- Seiko, Lock On, Peterson, and Sabine. And for the money this one was by far the best choice. If it were stolen or lost, I wouldn't hesitate to buy another one, I may buy another just so I have it. Buy this tuner, you will not regret it. This review may be vague in description so if you have any questions at all, please feel free to e-mail me anytime.
