This tuner is the bee's knees! I use it at home, on stage and side stage teching on tour! I only ever recommend Peterson tuners to anyone!

I just purchased the StoboStomp HD I already have the StroboStomp and Clip on, both of which I love. this one is exactly what one would expect from Peterson in terms of quality and utility with two issues. Otherwise, I'd have given it 5 stars.
Why did they use the power connector they did? Standards exist for a reason and the 9v coaxial Center Negative connector is the standard for pedal power. Good luck getting a cable for your pedal board multi-output power supply (if you use one) to power this one. It isn't even USB C.
I spent several decades in SIlicon Valley managing hardware and software design both analog and digital. I'd be suspicious of the market research that went into selecting this connector as a design specification and as a Design Manager, I wouldn't have let it through. As it was, I got lucky rummaging around through the old cable bag and found one that fit.
Also, the pre-cut velcro, while pretty, did not stick well at all. You could not move the pedal at all w ...

I have been using peterson tuners for over 30 years and they are excellent however I am disappointed with the stomp HD. Out of the box it looks great updates quickly the LED screen is nice superior to the stomp classic however I am disappointed because many people like me use both passive pick ups and active pick ups and a classic stump you can bring down the level/DB's of the line/Signal that was a great feature aesthetically the stock HD looks nice but it can't handle the rugged use of the classic stump and I've only had it for six months if even that and it's starting to short out screen cuts on and off and I take care of my things have to rely on them stop classic Rock hard almost every night literally for six years nothing wrong with it until accidentally someone Drop something and if damage the screen if not I'd still be using without a doubt and the only reason I put three stars so people taking consideration I just put there I didn't wanna get drowned but it could maybe truly ...

Every bit as satisfying (& accurate) as my stroboclip HD! I use them on my acoustic 12 string guitars mostly (LOVE the sweetened 12 string tuning!).

A fantastic tuner that's been faultless on hundreds of rehearsals, shows, and gigs. It works well on bass guitar, including extended scale instruments. It is also fabulous on Double Bass too. The selectable colour screen means I can adjust it to suit stage lighting etc, so it's always clearly visible. After owning this for several years, a recent gig took an unexpected turn when a drunk came on stage between sets—someone none of the band knew. I later found out that he had almost certainly stepped on my Peterson pedal tuner, cracking the screen. Thankfully, the LCD beneath wasn’t damaged. I reached out to Peterson’s customer service, and they were excellent—sending me a replacement screen free of charge. It’s a reminder that for every bad experience, there’s often a good one right around the corner. Peterson gear may be a little pricier than others on the market, but their quality, functionality, precision and faultless customer service makes it worth every last penny. The spare parts ...

I use the Peterson Strobo Plus HD C at home - so I'm used to strobe tuners. But I needed a pedal for a gig. I have a Sonic Research ST-200 - I pulled it out and I just couldn't make heads or tails of the display. Ran over to the music store and got the Strobostomp HD. I had about 5 minutes to test it out and then off to the gig. It worked beautifully and the display was easy to read. Plus it made a great, pop-less mute pedal.

Bad battery shipped with unit. Set switch to TB. Hopefully will work out.
