    I no longer use any other tuners now that I have the Snark.

    I like my Snark quite a bit. I just like having something on the board so I can check on the fly without having to either clip on the Snark, or leave it clipped on.

    @Eric, I was not paying attention to his conclusions, and pretty much figure the Poly and Korg PB are pretty close. I just wanted to see if it looked like it worked pretty well. The poly is in the right price range, and I was not finding the Korg in the same range right now. Just a suggestion to my Mom as she was asking for Christmas list items. I might not end up with one anyway. But either one looks pretty good. That TT looks very cool too.

    I have the polytune. I like it. It's a tuner. And it works. Also have a Snark.

    I have the pitchblack and also have the Digitech Hardwire one. They are both great. I got the Hardwire at a great price.

    Another alternative, coming from a different direction but definitely neat: a set of Fender Locking Tuners for your 60th anniv. strat. These are sixty something I think and come in either chrome or brushed nickel. I have both types and really like them. They make stringing easier and are designed to hold a guitar with a tremolo in tune a lot better. I have noticed that my strat has been almost exactly in tune days after I stopped playing and picked it up again, since installing the locking tuners. I really like them and they should be a direct drop in for your strat. They also have a high coefficient of cool, in my opinion, too.

    I hope I don't sidetrack you too much with this idea. I really like my snark and it has eclipsed my other tuners, so I thought I'd suggest something as an alternative but, in my opinion, value laden.

    Good luck with the decision.
