If you’re looking for an entry-level clip-on guitar tuner that’s small enough to throw in the gigbag or jacket pocket, this is a very decent option.

There is even a tap-tempo metronome mode, which again is an excellent feature at the price. The accuracy is not posted by Snark, and while tuners from the likes of Peterson and TC Electronic would lick it in those stakes, the Snark will be fast and accurate enough for most players, and is especially easy to get to grips with for beginners. It clamps on tight to your headstock, offering a chromatic tuner that can be switched between microphone mode for tuning acoustic instruments and vibration mode, which uses a transducer to convert and interpret the string’s vibrations into a tuning reading.

Snark makes clip-on guitar tuners in many different colors, in many different styles, but there is a recurring theme in that they are all very accessibly-priced and have a bright colorful screen that makes them visible in low light situations – y’know, like the stage.

You are not going to find a more accurate clip-on guitar tuner on the market. It can be mounted either on the front or the rear of your guitar’s headstock and there’s a visual metronome on-board too, keeping you in tune and in time. The D'Addario Planet Waves NS Micro Universal clip-on guitar tuner is compact, discreet and super cheap, but it still brings a lot of functionality to the table, with an easy-to-read digital display with switchable colors and a dual-swivel clip-on mount so you can view it from most angles. It’s not the cheapest clip-on out there, but it works excellently and, at a push, is our number one pick. The display is bright, the design is excellent, and you can easily switch modes between PolyTune, strobe and chromatic. Whether in pedal or clip-on form, the TC Electronic PolyTune Clip (opens in new tab) has been a game-changer for many players, allowing you to play all the strings at once and see which are in or out of tune.
