Korg GA-2-MG Handheld Chromatic Tuner Silver

The Korg GA-2-MG is a handheld chromatic tuner built for guitarists and bassists who want reliable pitch accuracy in a simple, portable format. Its needle-style meter provides smooth, precise visual feedback that many musicians prefer over segmented LED displays, and the large high-visibility screen ensures readability whether you're tuning backstage, in a practice room, or outdoors. Dedicated guitar and bass modes recognize string names automatically for quick tuning, while chromatic mode expands its usefulness to other instruments. Support for 7-string guitars and 6-string basses means extended-range players are covered without needing a specialized tuner.

Beyond standard tuning, the GA-2 includes Korg's Quinta Flat Tuning mode, which lets guitarists tune down in half-step increments up to five semitones below concert pitch — a feature that drop-tuning and metal players will find particularly useful. The adjustable calibration range of 410 to 480 Hz allows matching to orchestral standards or any custom reference pitch. Pure major and minor third indicators are a thoughtful addition that helps players fine-tune chord voicings beyond equal temperament. Pitch detection works via a built-in high-sensitivity microphone for acoustic instruments or through a direct cable connection for electrics, making the GA-2 a versatile tool that covers the essential tuning needs of most string players.
