![]() you might like it and its very conveniently mounted, with that adaptor, right on the banjo hooks, for easy reach. No offense is meant and I dont really change my posting style to suit what folks 'like'. Im sorry you dont like my posts but to be honest Im just being me and responding to what i read. Why is it that disagreeing with anyone on a forum is now being 'snarky' ? I just disagreed and said i wouldn't think it good advice to tell folks to throw away perfectly good tuners simply because you prefer a 'Korg'. You also said 'if anyone wants to use that tuner."more power to them', which is an oft used euphemism which implies 'snarky'. I didnt need to leave out anything as your reply was right there to read. You then said you prefer to use your ears, then said you used an electronic tuner yourself, which completely contradicted the earlier remark. I thought that was bad advice and completely subjective. You stated that its a 'good idea to discard it (electronic tuner) altogether", which was a statement aimed at those who do use them. I wasn't intending to be snarky, but to point out that an electronic tuner is a tool, just like a capo and picks. I used to really like your comments, but lately you are becoming a little "snark-y." (see, anyone can use an emoto-con) ![]() Why do you want to distort what a fellow poster says and add things that he did not say and twist around things that he did say just to make yourself look like some great authority? You also left out my last two sentences. That's funny, but I didn't say anything about straps or capos or any other devices. The only difference between a Snark and your devices is the Snark mounts conveniently on your banjo pot assembly and your two wont. You said you used a tuner and a tuning fork, so you are not just 'trusting you ears', as you stated. I think telling folks to discard these tuners is excessive and bad advice, they should also toss away straps and sit down to play and throw away a capo too. In certain situations where ambient noise is a real issue, tuners are invaluable for tuning, when everyone can't hear and know if they are in tune or not, tuning to each other is blind leading the blind. There are situations when tuning to other instruments is a recipe for disaster. I have an excellent ear, but not perfect pitch. If one likes and uses the electronic tuners, then more power to them. I had rather use my ear than depend on what some electronic device is telling me. I prefer to tune to another instrument or even a tuning fork. ![]() I do occasionally use a Korg hand held tuner, especially when changing strings. I don't like electronic tuners, especially the kind that clips on the peg head. A good reason to just discard it altogether.
