I can’t imagine clip-on tuners are the sort of thing most guitarists spend a long time thinking about. Over the years I must’ve picked up at least five of them, and to be totally transparent most of them are sitting in a drawer somewhere. So when I was asked to review the most expensive clip-on tuner I've ever come across, there was definitely a part of me that was more than skeptical.
The Peterson Stroboclip HDC costs a pretty penny, with an RRP around $/£80. For reference, a Boss TU-3 - arguably the most popular and durable guitar tuner ever made - is only $/£20 more, and can be had on sale and secondhand for much less than that. Even the TC Electronic PolyTune Clip can be had for a similar price with its unique polyphonic tuning capabilities.
