| Subject: | I'm very impressed with this little tuner! |
| Quality:
| The PT2700's plastic construction is solid and sturdy. I dropped it a couple of times and survived. The clip is strong which keep the tuner securely attached to the guitar's head. I was hesitant to buy thinking it could be a piece of crap but bought it anyway and boy I'm glad I was wrong. |
| Sound:
| N/A |
| Reliability:
| I bought fit a couple of months ago and as of today it's been work working great and very accurately. |
| Overall:
| A great buy considering it is packed with features like color display to indicate flat, sharp or in tune. Has 3 settings... guitar, bass and chromatic which would allow you to tune other instruments. To top it all up, it can be used in mic or vibration mode. These are features I expect in tuners costing much more. |

| Subject: | Does the job, and does it very well |
| Quality:
| Well, no, it's not the greatest physical quality, considering it's made out of plastic, so you've gotta be careful with it. It certainly functions well though, and did I mention how nice the auto-off is? |
| Sound:
| n/a, of course |
| Reliability:
| Totally reliable with the caveat that you've gotta be careful with it, as other reviewers said. If you carry your instrument in a case then you're okay. Gig bag, well, stow it carefully and don't bang the bag around. Anything less, buy a steel tuner. The auto-off keeps the battery from dying. |
| Overall:
| If you're able to protect this tuner from wanton abuse, it'll serve you extremely well, and you can afford to have another waiting back home if you're insecure. Price-performance is superb. It can bite a standard-thickness headstock, but don't count on it to grip anything much thicker. What it may lack in toughness, it more than makes up in function and economy. |
| Playability and Feel:
| The on/off button could be bigger, or my fingers smaller. I bought this and a PWCT10 (at twice the price) for my bass and guitar. The headstock on my bass is a little thicker and this Profile tuner strains to bite it, so it's on the guitar and the PWCT10 gets the bass. Both are great. |
| Tone:
| n/a, of course |
| Finish:

| Action:
| fairly responsive--much better than my wired tuner which was always dead 'cuz it didn't have an auto-off. Fairly good isolation. |

| yes, for a couple months now, and I've just ordered more for gifts |

| Subject: | CHEAPLY BUILT - Cheap price...no surprises |
| Quality:
| Very cheaply built with weak plastic all around - even the clip uses light plastic over strong, metal spring. Which means, the spring makes the plastic bend a little when you squeeze it to clip it on your headstock! The battery door uses these two, micro-sized, super-thin lips to hold on- one of them was broken when I received it - I'll have to use some tape but, no doubt, with use, they both will break, there is no way around. THe plastic is so thin that it already shows the sign of stress (when it changes color to almost white). |
| Sound:

| Reliability:
| Not reliable for precise tuning - performs differently on different guitars. Get VERY confused with the harmonics, even if you MUTE all other strings. |
| Overall:
| Not for professional use. Very unreliable and weak construction and feel. |
