I don't know about the REAL tuners, but this is a good one for the computer...

i used a tuning fork at the guitar store the other day and it was great. it's only like $4 too. but, it only tunes the E string. i like that better anyway, but i guess it's a preference.

Yea you can do it that way to prevent the audience hearing it, or use a volume pedal.

Cough up the extra 10 bucks for a chromatic tuner. It will make alternate tunings a helluva lot easier to manage.

apparently I have the fender lx12 (first time I ever looked at the tuner really).......... anything works.... chromatic allows for tuning any instrument and alternate guitar tunings but anything expensive is probably just nicer looking and more sturdy. The really cheap one will probably break in a week, the next level up may last forever.
