TC1S BL

The TC-1S is the first solar-powered tuner on the planet. A bank of solar cells on the front panel charges the included battery even at room light levels, and a USB input is also available for quick-charging when you’re completely in the dark. The tuner is wrapped in a shock-proof silicon cover that’s available in six colours and keeps the unit protected.

The TC-1S has a built-in microphone as well as a standard jack input for guitar and bass tuning. Ultra-fast pitch detection is shown on a wide bargraph display for instant Feedback. Four display modes are available, including strobe tuning animation and a fine setting for 1-cent accuracy. The tuner can be calibrated to an external source such as a piano or other hard-to-tune instrument.

Included with the TC-1S is a nylon strap and clip. Snap it to your guitar or bass gig bag and you will have it ready all the time.
