PRELOVED TC Electronic PolyTune Tuner Pedal
The TC Electronic PolyTune is one of the pedals that changed how guitarists tune on stage and in the studio. Instead of checking one string at a time, PolyTune lets you strum all strings at once and quickly see which strings need attention.
It also works as a standard chromatic tuner, making it just as useful for precise one-string tuning as it is for quick stage checks between songs. Simple, bright and easy to use, this is a great pedalboard tuner for guitarists and bass players who want fast, reliable tuning without overcomplicating their rig.
