Hi John, Have now got the Boss TU-80 tuner, but am having some problems in setting it up for tuning the guitar. Is it necessary to have sighted assistance to set this up, or do you have a sequence of button presses that you do to get to the guitar tuner and then each subsequent string? I downloaded the pdf version of the manual, but it is not exactly enlightening. Any assistance you could give would be much appreciated. John. -----Original Message----- From: access-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx [mailto:access-uk-bounce@xxxxxxxxxxxxx] On Behalf Of John Wilson Sent: 11 November 2012 19:09 To: access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Subject: [access-uk] Re: Accessible Guitar Tuner Yes, John, it omits a beep for each string when you reach the correct pitch. You just tune up to just below the correct string pitch and then use the tuner to get it perfect.

Does the tuner emit a tone when the correct pitch is reached on each of the strings? Apologies for asking, but just wanted to clarify before going ahead and purchasing. Cheers.

I have one and it works fine. You can buy it on Ebay for around £20. The buttons are all feelable and it is easy to use for basic tuning. HTH, John. ----- Original Message ----- From: "John Gregory" <jgm.gregory@xxxxxxxxxxxx> To: <access-uk@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> Sent: Saturday, November 10, 2012 12:06 AM Subject: [access-uk] Accessible Guitar Tuner Hi Folks, Has anyone come across a guitar tuner that is accessible to blind guitarists? Hundreds of tuners exist, but I cannot seem to find one which will indicate that the correct pitch has been achieved by sounding an audible tone (or stopping a tone when correct pitch is achieved). Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
