I don't have to go to a store to see that :twisted:

These little machines can mess up completely as well... on a Casino it launched the string ball into the wall tuning a d-string. Good fun :mrgreen:

I've seen how many guitars Paul has. He should have bought two.

And I am so trying this out next time I'm round your place. Woody was playing my 8 sting at BARC and thought I had it set up for some weird intervals. I didn't have the heart to tell him I'm just too lazy to tune it most of the time.

Probably more for when you're stringing up guitars. It probably makes a lot of sense for Paul W since he strings up a lot of guitars!!
There is no reason to ever be bored.

...why yes, I suppose I do have a double bound guitar fetish...

Yes, for a moment I forgot about Paul's occupation. I'm sure this makes much more sense in a commerical situation or to a person who works with a lot of guitars.

For sale:

One Insta-Tuner.

Used once.

Oh, did I mention that it's crazy slow? I can tune a 12 with a strobe about 20-30 times faster than this thing, which does a commendable job if you've got forever and a day.

Sheesh. There you have it!
