The TT-1000 Tuner may be the newest of the electronic tuners. However , I prefer it for several reasons. It responds pretty quickly with not only the LCD tuning meter, which is lit, but also with a Flat /Sharp Tune Indicator light. The indicator light is orange if the string is flat, red if sharp and turns green when you are on the note precisely. The back lit LCD screen is fairly wide and easy to see . The tuner clips on to the peg head and folds neatly under the head , but is much smaller than the Intellitouch. I think for 29$ its worth having .Definitely built to be sturdy . It is made by Tune Tech. I was not at FQMS looking for a tuner but left with this one. Pretty happy I did.

First Quality Music in Louisville , Ky continues to be the best for quality and customer satisfaction.They just re-fretted my Ome Gold Juggernaut and did a beautiful job. The great tradition Bill Sullivan started continues on without fail. I always look forward to a visit , which normally lasts a good half day once enter the front door. I feel like I live there as they allow me to roam anywhere and invite me to pick anything ( they have a Prototype 2 banjo which you need to play if you drop by) Everyone there is helpful .If you cant drop by and need anything ,phone orders are processed before your phone receiver is cold. I am lucky to live 80 miles up the road. |

I agree 100% with the previous review . I had seen the leather Reunion Blues bag and thought it would be handy to have , finally buying one from Janet last year.I was so surprised and impressed with the heft of this gig bag. Padding is so thick . I wanted it to use going into small venues or houses , since I seem to bang doors .Plus my hard case takes up a fair amount of room. I have only used my hard case once since owning this bag. I wouldnt stowe it on a plane but it a great quality product and very handy to have. JDMC ...always tops. |

I saw Sonny use his tuners , what he calls Sonny's Ugly Tuners, several years ago at banjo camp. Few years later I bought a set .Sonny is right about how they work-perfectly. They never need retuning , always come back in tune, install in five minutes with no damage to the banjo. There is a picture of a set on my Ome on my homepage, FYI. The price is reasonable .I disagree with Sonny about the "ugly " part -different , weird maybe but not ugly. |
