I've used other electronic tuners before for my mandolin but never a SNARK. The SNARK is easy to use and no directions are necessary to get started - very intuitive. It's also very durable - more on that later. Tuning seems to be accurate and consistent. I must also give a heartfelt endorsement to Harmon Music; the vendor that I bought my SNARK SN-8 from. When I received my SNARK SN-8, the packaging was completely destroyed. What I got in the mail was delivered in a zip lock baggie. Somewhere in the shipment process the packaged must have gotten caught in in some kind of machinery because the packaging was shredded, nothing left of the box, the bag that the tuner was supposed to be in was shredded and the bubble envelope used to ship it were all destroyed. The SNARK SN-8 was badly abraded, have the lettering on the face was gone and the case was cracked, but amazingly it still worked! I notified Harmon Music via E-bay and they immediately sent me a new one - no questions asked. I highly recommend Harmon Music as a business that is truly concerned with customer service. I can not say enough good about Harmon Music and I plan to conduct business with them in the future. Mark GrantRead full review

This tuner is not great. Does not work with my Gibson SG, which is probably why there are so many warnings in the packaging about not clipping this tuner on a Gibson so as not to mar the finish. I had this tuner and my old Sabine St1500 running at the same time with my Fender Tele; the Snark would show a string as being in tune while the Sabine would still show it slightly out of tune. Listening then proved the Sabine right. Snark was indeed too good to be true for under $20.

Wow....I always tuned by ear and now I find using the "Tuner" that my hearing was off, sharp (#). This is easy to use, just clip it on and pluck the string. The tuner will show you the the note. I would recommend the "Super Tight" to any one who plays a stringed instrument. Paul B.

Best guitar tuner ever! I can't tell you how many electronic tuners I have gone through in the past 15 years. Brands like Korg, Reverb, and Snark. Literally dozens, and probably about 10 of the various Snark tuners. This is by far the best. I purchased this based upon the recommendations of another reviewer on Amazon, who pointed out that other Snark "Super Tight" electronic tuners have a needle that gets lost in the colors that border it. This reviewer pointed out that another Super Tight tuner was available that had this sort of "bar graph" face. It was (he explained) far easier to use, and far easier for my old eyes to differentiate. This was 100% accurate, and I am loving this tuner. I would even say that Snark improved the ruggedness of this tuner. In the past I have broken several tuners at the joint where the neck meets the swivel head. It appears to be even stronger now. Very easy to use, and also easy to see. All around brilliant in it's simplicity. Highly recommended.Read full review

The Snark ST-8 is just a great little tuner. It's compact, fast, accurate, and works for all of my guitars and banjos. I was especially surprised how well it tuned my electric guitar in a noisy environment. It's easy to use and easy to see. Mounts snugly with padded clip but transfers from one instrument to another quickly. So far, it's the best tuner I've owned.
