New Korg tuners and metronome on the way
Korg is releasing a host of new tuners and a new digital metronome, all destined to arrive in the UK around April this year.
One of the most stylish of Korg’s additions will be the Pitchblack Advance MG Limited Edition pedal tuner, available in metallic grey for a limited time only.
In addition to the colour and what Korg says is a rugged finish, the Pitchblack Advance is lighter in weight and display features high-brightness colour LEDs, nearly doubling the size of the note name display and providing increased visibility. Expected SSP £ 69.00 inc VAT.
Also on the way is a clutch of new clip-on tuners, led by Korg’s guitar and bass and OTB Polyphonic models with new OLED display technology.
Korg says: ‘The AW-OTG-POLY/AW-OTB-POLY represents the perfect combination of exceptional precision and stunning visibility that guitarists and bassists have been longing for. Each tuner comes equipped with cutting-edge OLED screen technology, allowing the display to be clear, smooth and perfectly visible from any angle. Additionally, its polyphonic tuner function allows you to play all strings at once and know at first glance which strings are out of tune. The AW-OTG-POLY/AW-OTB-POLY tuners offer a brand new tuning experience!’
Expected SSP £ 69.00 inc VAT (Both Bass & Guitar models).
