Behringer TU100 or TU200

Is there any difference between the two? One is eight pounds more expensive. I'm gigging tonight and I'm using the Jag-stang for the first time, so I want a tuner, so I'm going to go into twon and pick up one of these.

I had a TU100 i think it was, worked fine but it did put a bit of hum on the line (though that may also have been caused by my power supply as well). I would recommend getting decent one rather than doing what i did and regretting it later. Its a tuner pedal, its something you will always use and have on your pedalboard, i say do it right first time round. I think matchetts has a bunch of them and guitar emporium has one of the artec ones which are supposedly cheap and good though i have never used one. I think matchetts might have one of those too.

They are exactly the same. Except you have to pay and extra 8 quid if you smoke.

It's Matchette's I'll be going to. The Emporium are a bunch of fucking cowboys. I could more or less guarantee that it'll be a fiver more there, if they carry them.

I'll see what Matchette's have. If the have both, I'll ask to try them with an amp, to see what sort of a nois they make.

Makes sense. Smokin' hot solos do put the guitar out of tune.

This is very true! They have a really nice looking jazzmaster in guitar emporium, if they weren't so pretentious in there i would ask to try it out. That and i have little intention of buying it since i don't have the funds.

They're complete cocks. The manager always tries to act all knowledgeable and talks shite to try to persuade you into a deal, by making stuff up, sort of.

They do have some nice stuff though, stuff that matchetts doesn't have, thats the problem. That and i can't try a guitar in there without feeling hassled to buy it.

That never really bothered me. I don't have a problem saying "thanks, this guitar's lovely, but I think I'm going to go to Matchettes and them to get one in cheaper."

It's their problem, like. Not mine.

I got the TU-300. It works fine, and is completely silent to my ears.

Anyone think these are the best for the money?

I'm wondering if it'd be cheaper to run one in a loop... or just buy a nicer one.

Probably the latter.

With battery or a supply?

Battery. I couldn't be fucked with power supplies.
