An easy-to-use dedicated Guitar and Bass Tuner
This dedicated guitar and bass tuner lets you select either Guitar mode or Bass
mode for truly easy operation with automatic pitch detection. The GA-1 Guitar
Tuner mode supports 7-string guitars (7B through 1E). The GA-1 Bass Tuner mode
support 6-string basses (Low-B, Hi-C). A high-sensitivity mic is built-in,
allowing easy and accurate tuning of acoustic guitars.
Ultra-compact body with a “Tilt Slit”
Although the GA-1Guitar Tuner is small, thin, and light, don’t let its
pocket-sized body fool you. The GA-1 guitar and bass tuner can accurately tune
any guitar or bass. From studio to stage, tuning is easy and convenient. The
back of the unit includes a unique arc-shaped “tilt slit” that lets you
insert a plastic card for use as a handy stand.
High-precision LCD meter
The meter section uses a LCD needle, combining the accuracy of an LCD with the
easy visibility of a needle, and providing a stable display. Additional visual
feedback is provided by LEDs that indicate pitch deviation.
Sound Out – internal speaker provides a reference pitch
In addition to visual tuning via meter, the GA-1 Guitar Tuner/Bass Tuner can
play reference pitches from its internal speaker (Sound Out) for tuning by ear.
Each press of the Sound switch will cycle the output sound through
7B->6E->5A->4D->3G->2B->1E in the GA-1’s Guitar Tuner mode,
or LB->4E->3A->2D->1G->HC in GA-1’s Bass Tuner mode.
Quinta Flat tuning mode – a world-wide first!
The GA-1’s Quinta Flat Tuning mode supports the lowered tunings used in heavy
metal styles to give more weight to the sound. Until now, dedicated guitar
tuners have supported a maximum of only four semitones below standard pitch, but
the GA-1 gives you five steps of flatted tuning, extending as far as five
semitones below standard pitch, and supporting even super-long scale guitars
that are five frets longer than conventional guitars.
Approximately 100 hours of continuous use
Low-power consumption design allows an amazing 100 hours (approximate) of
continuous battery life (A4 continuous input, Meter mode, zinc-carbon
batteries). Auto power off kicks in if the unit is powered-on for 20 minutes
without performing any operation.
