Boss Footer Tuner
This Boss tuner is absolutely very easy to use. I've had no problem using it, nor do I know anyone who's had a problem. It's perfect. Most Boss products and Boss tuners are of very high quality, yet are very simplistic and easy to use. Being simple though, they still make sure to include features that more advanced users can use, which is what they did with the Boss TU-2 tuner. They have various modes and features that one can use if needed. The various modes are bass, b, bb, guitar, and chromatic.
The tuner, overall, is amazing. Great sound quality. The amp/bass doesn't seem to lose any quality with the sound passing through, at least not noticeably. No buzzing, no loss of sound. Overall, very high quality. While I only use this pedal on it's own, I know several people who've added it to a pedal board. What's great is that it's battery can power the entire effects board, as well as mute all sounds/effects at once.
So far, this Boss tuner has been very reliable. I haven't had any problems. Though I haven't used it for many live shows, I've used it in practice frequently without any problems whatsoever.
This tuner is perfect. Quick response. I play in Drop D and occasionally in Drop C and the tuner's had no problem picking it up. Overall, the Boss TU-2 is the perfect tuner, regardless of if you play bass or electric guitar. it's perfect for live performance.
