My fourth mini
« on: August 31, 2016, 09:48:24 AM »


I got this the other week. I must admit my original pitch black wasn't the most reliable, but still I've come back for more. This mini version runs on batteries or external power. Its a good size, and the display is very readable.

Only used it for one gig so far, but I was happy.

One problem is that the output jack is rather loose. I can't send it back since I only discovered it after I attached my pedalboard velcro and so on. I hope this is not a sign of poor reliability to come.

Nice one gwEm. I always wonder if a display in this format is stagefriendly, but apparently it is.  :cheesy:

Yes, the display is good and bright, and as it turns out a very similar size to the original pitch black.

I need a mini tuner, myself -- but will probably spring for the TC mini tuner.

I've got the TC Polytune mini on my board and really like it.
So many pickups, so little time

I'd recommend the full-size Polytune if you plan on using it for bass at all.  It has a bass mode.  The guitar mode (which is all you get on the Mini) is not good for tuning basses.
