Thundersteel Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 It's the Boss TU-1000 Tuner. Like I said, it's BIG! It's over 16" wide and 7" deep. The list price is $362.50. I've seen it at some stores for $349, and Amazon has it for $159--but I found it at GC for only $69 shipped! That's even cheaper than used ones on Ebay! I really don't need another tuner, but for this price, why not?
t0aj15 Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 I really don't need another tuner, but for this price, why not? For the same reason it never sold in the first place, it's an oversized, overpriced, POS that was outdated before it ever hit the market. There are many FAAAR more accurate and smaller tuners on the market for very reasonable money. Why settle for such an eyesore that takes up so much real estate? Not all of Roland/Boss ideas were good ideas.
t0aj15 Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 That's a big rack mount unit.... Cool. It's not a rack unit, it's a pedal.
Kuz Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Sorry, but I have to agree.... It is too big. Why does someone need a tuner that big?
SouthpawGuy Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Sorry, but I have to agree.... It is too big. Why does someone need a tuner that big? Maybe someone with big feet Really big feet actually. .

Guest HRB853370 Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 Sorry, but I have to agree.... It is too big. Why does someone need a tuner that big? Maybe the elderly folk? I have a Korg strobe type tuner in my SKB bass rig rack. I like to see the led's whirring back and forth while I play. Makes it easy to tune before every song.

H Posted August 25, 2013 Posted August 25, 2013 You have to tune your bass before every song ? I had a bass like that once. Only once though
tulk1 Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 I can think of one dude that could use that tuner on his pedal board.
JeffB Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 New pedal board. I like compact tuners. That Boss is ridiculous.

kidsmoke Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 that's really too bad. Pretty sure Miley Cyrus is looking for a "big tuner"...
koula901 Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 You know who could use something like that? A guitar technician. See if Yoslate wants it.
H Posted August 26, 2013 Posted August 26, 2013 You know who could use something like that? Mr Magoo?
tulk1 Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 I can think of one dude that could use that tuner on his pedal board. Really guys and gals? No comments at all? I worked really hard on getting Paul to pose with that 150. And finding one in his size wasn't fun!! (okay, it was all fun). It was cleaning up after Babe that was the real problem. If you know what I mean.
SouthpawGuy Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 I can think of one dude that could use that tuner on his pedal board. Don't see many blue cows these days
tulk1 Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 Don't see many blue cows these days Babe is not a cow. She's an Ox. Babe, the Blue Ox. That is why she's blue.
SouthpawGuy Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 Babe is not a cow. She's an Ox. Babe, the Blue Ox. That is why she's blue. The only babe I know is this one Did a quick google search on babe, found lots, none of which I can post here
JeffB Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 I can think of one dude that could use that tuner on his pedal board. man, that guitar is bigger than trees. Its bigger than big trees. The pickups are bigger than houses. Im starting to suspect that nothing in this picture is real.
SouthpawGuy Posted August 27, 2013 Posted August 27, 2013 man, that guitar is bigger than trees. Its bigger than big trees. The pickups are bigger than houses. Im starting to suspect that nothing in this picture is real. Yeah, me too.
