Listing Info

from the Peterson Electro-Musical Products, Inc. web site

In 1948, 10 years after the invention of the strobe tuner, Chicago-based Peterson Electro-Musical Products began building instrument tuners under the direction of Dick Peterson, a pioneer of solid state electronics. The first Peterson tuner was the Model 150 in 1952. This was updated to become the Model 200 in 1959 and the design was advanced to solid state with the Model 300 in 1966.

<img class="float-left w-24 mr-2 mb-2" src="/images/manufactures/Peterson/StrobeClipHD.png" alt="StrobeClipHD" /> The StroboClip™ has the 1/10 cent accuracy of all Peterson strobes and also includes new Sweetened™ Tunings and alternate temperaments for a wide variety of string and wind instruments.

With new Sweeteners and temperaments specific to acoustic instruments, the StroboClip is the first multi-temperament clip-on tuner ever available on the market.

The tuner’s enclosure is made of metal ensuring stage-worthy operation. Soft, rubber pads line the jaws of the clip section to protect the instrument being tuned.

The StroboClip also introduces an exclusive SUStain Mode feature that allows the user prolonged note viewing time when tuning short-voiced instruments. The note is captured and displayed on the screen until the next time the tuner is triggered. Excellent for use with instruments like tenor banjo and similar instruments with percussive but brief signals.

The StroboClip is encased in a brushed aluminum shell to help it withstand the rigors of the road and the included cushioned, metal carrying case will keep it safe when not in use. Soft, rubber pads in the jaws of the StroboClip protect the instrument’s finish while providing a firm grip for maximum signal conductivity.

Just browsing over both books, they look fantastic! I'm a guitarist and uke player for over 25 years and was thinking about writing a ukulele book but you've already written what I think are the best, most comprehensive and thorough books I've ever seen for the instrument. I just might end up buying every book you've written and I'll be giving my highest recommendation for your books to my friends and students. Thank you so much for taking the time to write such great books!Peter Rhee
