Yeah!....I'm definitely not lending Pete any more of my guitars !πŸ˜‘πŸ˜…πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚.

I think that very few musicians aren't without some degree of vanity regarding the sensitivity of their ear .
This no doubt leads us into a bit of ' Emperor's New Clothes ' marketing gullibility .

One guitarist ,soloist ,virtuoso ( who will remain nameless ) , declared on some YouTube video that " Leaving your tuner clipped onto the top of your headstock while you play KILLS the sound of your guitar!"
( That actually sounds more like ' The Princess And The Pea ' ...... Anyway !....All very fanciful fairytale stuff to be sure !πŸ˜…πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚).

If he thinks a clip-on tuner affects the tone of the guitar, he is well and truly off his trolly πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚
