The tuner

The included tuner is designed to be used in a silent environment. If  you have to tune in a noisy 
environment we recomment a clipon tuner (CA-AW3G) or a contact microphone (CA-CM200). 
This allows you to tune independent of the noise level around you.
Both are not included and can be purchased through feeltone.
