I constantly tune, stringed instruments.

Whether I’m at my recording desk, somewhere in the living room, at my guitar repair bench, or just anywhere playing instruments, I have a Peterson with me everywhere I go.

I’ve enjoyed having Peterson petals, desktop, tuners, rack, tuners, iOS Tuners, and clip-ons. Every single one has been marvelous!

This new colorized version of the clip tuner is nothing short of amazing. All my sweeteners come handy just by clipping this wonderful tuner to part of my instrument.

The Support at Peterson is excellent, the products are excellent, and my music is all the better for it.

Kind regards,

Jim Pearson of Vivid Peace.

Excellent tuners. Had two StroboClip HDs and just upgraded them to HDCs. Love the multi-coloured display, and USB-C/rechargeable battery on the HDC. The sweetened tunings (as per the HD) are great for acoustic guitar.

Peterson's support for my HD's was excellent too; I lost one of the rubber feet on the clip, and they sent me a replacement free of charge!

I only gave four stars because the sweetener descriptions on the website don’t show how many cents different, plus or minus, they are from the standard (A 440Hz) tuned note

I first tuned with another clip on and thought it was in tune. Then I tuned with this and got so much better sound. Tuning a Gretsch is sometimes hit or miss. I got many more hits than misses with the StroboClip HDC on. The StroboStomp HD is even better. I now keep this on my acoustics and the other on my pedal board.

Does my StroboClip HDC require calibration?

Generally, your StroboClip HDC will not require calibration and should remain perfectly accurate if it has not been damaged.

Unlike more modern Peterson strobes, legacy models such as the Peterson 400, 420, 450 and 700 do require occasional calibration.

If you require service, please open a support ticket and return the tuner for repair.

How long do I need to charge my StroboClip HDC if the battery dies?

Your StroboClip HDC will give roughly 5 minutes of tuning time after a 1 minute charge.

10 minutes of charging will give roughly 1.5 hours of tuning time.

45 minutes of charging should fully charge the StroboClip HDC and allow up to 6 hours of tuning time.

What is the battery life of StroboClip HDC?

The StroboClip HDC should operate for roughly 6 hours of tuning time, dependent upon color choice and brightness.

The colors red, green, and blue use only one LED driver and therefore require less power allowing for longer use before depleting the battery.

White uses all three LED drivers at full power, using the most amount of battery power and will reduce the amount of tuning time available.

Brightness values will also affect the battery life. Brightness may be set via the Configuration Tool in Peterson Connect.

My StroboClip HDC is charged but will not turn on. What do I do?

If your StroboClip HDC is non responsive to the Power/m\Menu Button, and it is confirmed that the battery is charged, please use the Reset Button located on the rear of the tuner.

To activate the Reset Button, insert a pin or straightened paper clip into the hole in the back of the tuner. You will feel a slight depression and click of the Reset Button. Hold the Reset Button in the depressed state for 3 seconds then release.

Your Power/Menu Button should now function normally.
