This is a great tuner, with brilliant accuracy and deserves a full five stars, ......but for one thing.
Unlike the $9.99 Petersons phone app, the $125 StroboPlus DOESN"T display the numerical 'Cents'- this is extremely frustrating and I was astonished to find it didn't have this as having a numerical Cents to work with it's pretty darn essential for getting perfect intonation for a high end luthier.
IF I had known it didn't have a cents display, i simply would have bought another tuner that did have Cents. (Note, there is a way to find out how many numerical cents you are out of tune/intonation but it is an absolutely ridiculous method. Also, the software is obviously already in this machine to display cents [cuz you can do it], so why not add it to the main screen !!!!!!!!!!!
I recommend using the TP-3 clip on pickup (which plugs into the StroboPlus) for better accuracy on instruments without a pickup in noisy workshops- by noisy I mean if you have a heater, fan or humidifier running going.
