## Description

The new and improved Snark SN1X model includes faster processing chip, enhanced accuracy, and new high definition screen that can be read from any angle

Review: Great accuracy and speed of tuning from a clip on tuner. This new version Snark is excellent. - I have several of the earlier versions of the Snark, having been a fan since their inception. This new version is a much brighter and clearer screen than previous ones and works faster too. The hz button works fine and the reading is clear although relatively small on the main screen. Like the Peterson tuners the hz display is about getting very fine tuning, however fans of the strobe tuning on those won’t have the same visual cues. The Snark is good enough to get my Classicals and Electrics easily and quickly in tune. The instructions do say do not put it on ANY Gibson guitar and nitrocellulose finishes, the previous reviewer was right about that. Older versions of the Snark had similar warnings but not about Gibson specifically. I did notice some minor pressure marks on two French polished guitars but I did leave the old Snark tuner in situ for long periods and the marks were easily polished out. I had no issues on Ibanez guitars at all. This new tuner will sit on a Cordoba dolce headstock most of the time and so far no marks but it’s only been on a couple of days. I didn’t know whether the Gibson thing might have been a bit of a poke at Gibson - The Gibson’s I have owned and played weren’t that great with intonation etc.. The odd pressure marks came off easily with Mr.Sheen (natural) and microfibre cloth. For the cost of around £20.00 this is the best value clip on tuner there is. An update in Nov 2020. Still the best and have come done to £14.99. I now have a third and they function perfectly and have NO issues with marks on the headstocks other than my comments in 2018.
Review: Good fast and accurate tuner, and works with violin - Brilliant little tuner. I use it on my violin after pondering the variety of Snark versions and other tuners. The clip grabs the scroll securely, and you can angle the display such that you can easily see it when on your shoulder; good for checking your tuning. Although I tend to do the tuning with it sat in my lap and plucking. Of all the Snark models, which I found a bit confusing (which one's would work with violin? which ones had a mic? metronome?) I went for this one due to the improved and quicker processor. I don't know what the speed of the other tuners is having never used them but this is quick at displaying the note. I thought the lack of mic might be a downside but it really hasn't been a problem so far - it works so well clipped on. The metronome is a bit of a gimick. I can't see mself using it really. It's just a flashy heart on the display with no audio noise. It's never going to replace a proper tick tick metronome.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: Does the snark sn1x version work with other stringed instruments, such as ukuleles and cellos?**
A: The NEW Snark SN8 would be a better fit for what you are looking for. I just bought 2 for about $25 to replace my OLD SN8. They will work on all instruments. Hope this helps.

**Q: does this measure by vibration**
A: Yes. It has both a vibration and mic option.

**Q: Is this tuner safe for use with yamaha student guitars (cgs102a)?**
A: YES,  THE SNARK LINE OF TUNERS ARE COMPLETELY SAFE TO USE WITH ACOUSTIC AND ELECTRIC GUITARS, as well as Base guitars. The clamp is spring loaded and has protection to keep from scratching the guitar surface and finish.

**Q: What does the screen look like when u tune a sharp note**
A: Actually, the current picture is a tad sharp.

 The blue line is in tune. Red is flat and the green is sharp.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Outstanding service by Snark and simply the best guitar tuners I’ve found.
*by J***L on 21 November 2020*

This is my second Snark tuner, an HZ Super Tight. As with my last one ( a Super Tight) bought Around 3 years ago, the tuning is accurate, simple, speedy and so much better than the other tuners, both clip on and chromatic, that I’ve owned. But I particularly wanted to acknowledge the outstanding service delivered by Snark. On a recent trip with my guitar, I found that the clip had broken whilst stored in my case. I ordered a replacement but thought I would see if I could obtain a new clip from Snark. They kindly sent me a replacement FOC, from USA to UK. Great service! And tremendous tuners!
