Acoustic tuner? not bass though.. help?

[sixner]

Welp, since there's no Violin section... i thought i would ask my fellow bassist :thumb:

My girlfriend plays violin and piano, but she's a perfectionist and doesn't like to play if it's out of tune, but hasent played long enough to have her ears trained to be able to tune herself...

so, i wanted to get her a tuner for her violin... but, do they need a special tuner? i wouldn't think so but im just checking... she might get a bass for x-mas cause she wants to learn.. she could use it for that too..

would any acoustic tuner work? or no...

suggestion's w/ price?

i think so...and on a side topic i heard a violin was tuned G D A E (low to high)

If memory suits me violins are tuned eadg...it should work

although their are some tuners that tune violin bass and guitar...

shop around pretty much

You're new, so I decided to cut you some slack instead of letting someone else come in and tear you a new asshole. Which I'm suddenly regretting. Fancy that.

Now, sorry for getting off topic. But yeah, I like Yamaha acoustic tuners, personally. They are indeed reliable.

This is the tuner I use right now.

I've used it to tune my 5 string (gets a bit iffy on the low B), acoustic and electric guitars and a violin. The mic lets it tune pretty much anything. It's not the best tuner around but it gets the job done for cheap.
