Intellitouch Tuner

The Intellitouch PT1 tuner was designed to tune electric and acoustic guitars, basses, violins, banjos, mandolins etc. without interference from ambient room noise. It does this without the use of wires, microphones or pickups. We have been using it here at Billy Cooper’s Steel Guitar Shop for several years and have found that it works great for the pedal steel. Instead of clamping it onto a key as you normally would for most instruments, you simply lay it on the body of your pedal steel (In the illustration below right, Billy has removed the clamp. Doing this is optional. Works great either way). Tuning in noisy environments is a snap because the digital signal processor actually "feels" the instrument's vibrational energy instead of relying on sound.

The Intellitouch learns and remembers. It uses the latest in digital technology to adjust the tuning reference to any frequency you want, and it stores the "learned" reference in the preset even when it is turned off! Its ease of use and reliability is what beginners need and professionals want. It is quick, accurate and easy. Uses two standard coin-cell batteries. Stores in its own custom carrying case. Size approximately 6” long x 1 ¼” wide. Weighs about 2 oz. #PT1. $65.00

 

 

 

 

 

The Intellitouch PT2 “Bare Bone” tuner is identical in form and function to the PT1 above except that it is white, does not have a backlight and does not come with a carrying case.
