For bass guitars, you tune in a descending order as the Hz frequency gets smaller. The chromatic SN is a pedal tuner for the stage or studio. It can run with a 9V battery, and with the large LCD screen and very bright and visible display, it will eat battery life if left on. However, it can be used with an adapter that is not included in the buy.
The pedal will hold up under constant use with its die cast metal housing, and it has both an input jack and mute output jack. The N stands for Napoleon, and the N-5 model is designed as a chromatic, multi-instrument tuner.
It has rugged construction, padded stay-put clamp, and the iconic Snark swivel head that connects with a ball joint so you can always see the LCD screen. The display will glow green. It comes with a detachable pick holder that can hold up to 3 picks and is placed over the top of the tuner. Note: picks are not included. The N-6 is the brown colored version of the blue N-5 Napoleon tuner. Tuners that are multi-instrument rated can be used with any instrument if it has a built-in microphone or vibrations strong enough for the tuner to detect.
Most of these tuners will work well for most stringed instruments. However, some tuners do have a calibration pitch frequency feature where you can change it from the default setting to anywhere between Hz. This is a feature in which strings are tuned according to the actual frequency of the note being played. The tuners with this feature will come with a Hertz frequency chart with the frequency value assigned to each string as a guideline. The displays on each Snark tuner may be different between series and type.
Some may light up only a couple needles at a time, and others may show a colored scaling range of needles. All Snark tuners come with a clip-on clamp and degree swivel head ball joint except for the Console tuners and Pedals. The degree ball joint is connected to the display head by 3 prongs. While there are rare reports of the actual clamp breaking, the most common complaints regarding build quality is with the prongs and the connecting arm.
This is the automatic features of the tuners that consists of a dimly lit screen after 5 seconds of non-use and complete shut down after 2 minutes of non-use. However, it seems Snark listened and have equipped this feature on all their tuners.
It will continue to be active while you play which will considerably consume battery juice. The rubber pads on the clamp can adversely affect the finish on your instrument, particularly headstocks of stringed instruments.
For the sake of extreme exaggeration I clambered into a pitch-black cupboard and was easily able to perfectly tune my guitar in complete darkness. The single, large power button on front is easy to locate and the bright, colourful screen is easily readable. Check it out in action on my Vintage V below! The Snark tuner is a fantastic little unit and I am thoroughly impressed with it.
Plus it looks super cool clamped onto the end of your guitar! Get Your Own! Conclusions The Snark tuner is a fantastic little unit and I am thoroughly impressed with it. SN2 I have a new Snark too and really enjoy it. What I think I like most about it is that it seems to pick-up just fine the notes on my mando and guitars -- and I especially like the fact that I can position the display right under the underside of my headstock, looking right at me at the absolute perfect angle, and its display is compact yet bright and very easy to read.
Just wish it weren't made in China SN2 The SN2 does have a microphone so you can tune without the tuner being clipped to the instrument. The tap-tempo metronome is actually useful as well. I like mine quite a bit. It hears all the strings on the mandolin and on the guitar very well, and responds quickly.
I know that some have said it is not accurate, but I have not found that to be the case. SN2 Help me out here. So if I had one clipped to my fiddle, I could check my intonation on the fly? If so, I want one! SN2 I have the SN2 and my bandmates are jealous SN2 I received my sn2 the other day.
I have had a lot of tuners in my day. This is a really nice tuner. It is the first one I have ever owned that picks up the low E on an acoustic guitar consistently. Nov, pm The LED is very clear and the response is quick. After years of using Boss pedal tuners with electric guitars on rock band gigs, this is my first clip-on style tuner and so far so good.
SN2 Walt, the answer is yes. So if you want to check how accurate your intonation is when you play an E flat, for example, this will do it. SN2 I've got it on my wish list. Let the TAD begin! Apr, am SN2 Mandolin Cafe comes through again!
A banjo player handed me his red Snark yesterday. It was so much more sensitive than my "good" clip on. Tuned the mandolin better than by ear. I'm sold. Didn't know there are two models, so thanks again guys and girls.
