ROADIE 3 | Smart Automatic Guitar Tuner, Metronome & String Winder | For Electric Guitars, Acoustic Guitars, 12-String Guitars, Ukulele, Banjo, Mandolin | 100+ Alternate Tunings

I have a long term illness and although easy for most folk I find tuning and restringing my guitars exausting and taxing.This automatic tuner has been a God send for me, all I have to do is switch it on, select my tuning and just wack it onto the tuning pegs and let it do it's thing.The build quality is very good, it has a nice, bright, large display and is not too heavy. I have found it to be very accurate (specially on the high accuracy setting in selectable in settings), reliable and consistant. You can also select diferent tunings which is a useful function and the unit also has a memory to memorise diferent tunings that you may have for specific guitars that you may own.I have found the battery life to be very good, I use this tuner at least 4 or 5 times a week and get a good few months between charges.The motorised winding funtion is also a very useful and an essential function for me, saving so much time and energy replacing strings, there are various speed settings for this too.A few years later and this tuner has become an essential bit of kit for me, yes it comes at a price but for me it was worth every penny.

Love it, it makes tuning so much quicker, only issue is once every 30/40 times it won’t find the right note, and will completely downtime the string, like it has a brain fart, but a quick reset and it’s fine. Plus I love the auto wind feature, lets me change my strings quickly

The media could not be loaded. So I hung back on giving any reviews because there are already many good reviews up here, and I wanted to spend time going through everything this tool can do.Really anyone who is at the beginning stages of learning to play guitar, please only use this tuner as a reference guide.Its important that you learn to tune your guitar by ear.Use this guage with caution using its string winder function it can wind string pretty quick depending on where you have the speed set and end up snapping the string or further damage to you or the guitar.Should this ever happen pull the tuner off the machine head. Be very careful if re-stringing your hands or fingers are not trapped beneath the string where the winder could wind up fast, damage to hand or worse no fingers.What an excellent tool this is and yes it does tend to get stuck on a G, now and again, but otherwise if that happens I just remove and start again. Love this unit. I charged this 2 weeks ago, play everyday for hours.. Still doesn't need charging, even though i've done three guitar string changes it still doesn't require charging its still 70% charged.Definitely worth the cash. Accuracy I've checked against my Peterson Strobe Tuner.. bang on the button if your not a flea!Yes awesome thus far.Rock N Roll

I have always tuned by guitars by ear.Even on stage it was the quickest way.However, tinnitus and general hearing loss have made this process very difficult now I’ve hit 70.This gadget is brilliant.It tunes my electric and acoustic guitars perfectly. I can still tune pretty close by ear, but this thing tweaks it to perfection.It’s not a cheap thing, but if you want to get this best possible tune in the shortest possible time, it’s the winner.Easy to use - other than the awkward twisting your hand the read the bottom set of strings - but that’s down to the design of the guitar head not the tuner.Definitely worth buying if you are either a keen amateur player or a paid musician.🎼 🎶

It’s simple to use and is absolutely accurate. Amazing bit o’ kit.

better tuning yourself very awkward to use rrtakes longer than normal tuning and broken strings at the end very frutrating buy a normal tuner and save your money

This Roadie 3 guitar tuner totally delivers on what it promises, so I'm giving it five stars. But it is a luxury, because it costs five times the price of a clip-on tuner that would do the job perfectly well.This tuner turns the tuning pegs for you, which is great - but of course you could easily turn the tuning pegs yourself! A big advantage of this one is that you don't need to remember the tuning EADGBE - this one does it for you. Or you can set alternative tunings and this one will remember it. So if you want standard tuning for one song and Drop-D tuning for another song, this tuner will switch between the two quickly. That is fantastic. But many players may never need that functionality. By the way, you cannot tune bass guitars with this tuner (you need to buy the bass version for that).I love this tuner. It really does achieve what it claims to achieve. I totally recommend it - especially if you like gadgets and can afford an expensive tuner. But if you just want a tuner, I recommend a Snark Supertight clip-on tuner at a fifth of the price.

I have many guitars and some tuned in different tunings, the rodie3 is excellent for setting up guitars with different tunings, it is also great for tuning 12 string guitars. The only problem we had when tuning up guitars, was some of the strings were not precisely in tune and I had to use the Peterson Strobo to fine tune the guitars.The Rodie3 is great for a person or dealer with many guitars that want there guitars to be tuned up quickly.
