TC Electronic Polytune 3 – Ultra Compact Polyphonic Tuner

COMING SOON!

Building on the incredible successes of their previous two Polytune models, TC Electronic brings you ‘Polytune 3’ - a redefined version of their ultra-compact polyphonic tuner that maintains the most popular features of the previous model such as multiple tuning modes while offering an incredible new built-in BONAFIDE BUFFER.

This revolutionary feature offers zero signal degradation, ensuring that your signal – and as a result, your tone – is preserved with crystal-clear clarity even over long cable runs and complex pedal set-ups. It may sound simple, but few other tuners can offer performance and lucidity like this when used over lengthy cables!

You can switch between two bypass modes – BUFFER mode keeps the tuner fully operational even when the signal isn’t muted, while TRUE BYPASS cuts out the tuner’s functionality when it is.

Polyphonic tuning allows you to tune all of your strings in one go by simply strumming them all at once, though chromatic and strobe modes for individual string tuning are also offered for total flexibility. A super-bright 109-LED display with ambient light detector ensures that the display is easy to read, even in the brightest environments.
