Korg GA-40 - The Electric Guitar and Bass Tuner with
Superior Tuning Abilities!
- With superior features like a large, easy-to-see, LCD
needle-style display, the Korg GA-40 is a dedicated electric guitar tuner with
a great value!
Dedicated guitar and bass tuner with large LCD for easy
viewing
- The Korg GA-40 is a dedicated, easy-to-operate guitar and
bass tuner with automatic pitch detection. In Guitar mode it supports seven-string
guitars (7B through 1E), and in Bass mode it supports six-string basses (Low-B
and Hi-C). With the precision you expect from KORG, the GA-40 indicates the
pitch quickly and accurately. The LCD needle-style display provides both the
accuracy of an LCD as well as the easy viewing of a needle indicator, and the
display has been enlarged for even clearer visibility. You can also use the
built-in high-sensitivity microphone to tune an acoustic guitar.
Sound Out function produces a reference tone from the internal
speaker
- In addition to letting you tune visually using the meter,
this electric guitar tuner provides a Sound Out function that plays a reference
tone through the internal speaker, letting you tune by ear. Each time you press
the Sound switch, the tone will cycle through
7B->6E->5A->4D->3G->2B->1E in Guitar mode, or through
LB->4E->3A->2D->1G->HC in Bass mode.
Quinta Flat Tuning mode
- To support the dropped tunings used in heavy metal styles
and produce a powerfully massive sound, the GA-40 provides a Quinta Flat Tuning
mode that lets you detect dropped tunings of one through five semitones. This
lets you tune super-long scale guitars that extend below the pitch range of
conventional guitars.
Conveniently thin and compact
- The GA-40 hand held tuner gives you convenient guitar and
bass tuning functionality in a pocket-sized package, making it easy to tune
whether you're on stage or in the studio. An output jack (bypass) has been
added, making it easy to check the tuning even while you're performing. The
stand on the back lets you place the tuner on any surface.
Auto Power Off function
- The Auto Power Off function of this electric guitar tuner
automatically turns the power off after the unit has been left on for twenty
minutes, preventing the batteries from running down needlessly.
Approximately 85 hours of continuous use
- The GA-40 is designed for long battery life, and allows
approximately 85 hours of continuous use (continuous A4 input, Meter mode,
zinc-carbon batteries).
