The Korg Pitchblack X is a tuner pedal aimed at guitarists, but it will likely work with a few different instruments. It’s a pretty standard pedal size, though smaller versions are available should you want something that takes up less pedalboard real estate.
The first thing to note upon unboxing is how sturdy it feels. The aluminium casing feels great – solid, well built and like you wouldn’t mind stomping on it night after night. It’s even finished in a scratch-resistant coating. The jack connections are located on the side, and the power is on the top – it’s not really a pro or a con, but it’s definitely worth considering when you’re building your pedalboard.
