The good news is a "nice" guitar tuner can be had for a song. A tuner can range anywhere from $20 to $120 but there are many really, really good professional tuners available for as little as $30. Here are a few recommendations.

Korg has a number of tuners in various price ranges. We like the GA40 ($30). It is ultra compact and can be used with electric, acoustic and bass guitars.

Planet Waves also has a numer of fine tuners inlcuding their "working man’s" Chromatic Tuner ($29.99) and their nifty Chromatic Pedal Tuner ($129.99), which is a rugged, roadworthy floor pedal that will allow you stay in tune while playing with your band.

Other companies with super-reliable tuners in a multitude of price ranges include Sabine, Boss and Peterson.

Truth is, most tuners work pretty good these days. I’d advise you to go to your local music store, tell ‘em how much you want to spend and let them demo a couple options for you and see which one you like best.

it depends, it ranges from 5 or 10 bucks to MUCH higher. i use an intellitouch tuner that clamps to the head stock, most accurate tuner i’ve EVER used (senses neck vibrations rather than listen to tones which makes it immune to backround noise. they run between 30 and 50 dollars if i remember correctly and i HIGHLY recomend one of those.
