With the introduction of five innovative new tuners, a major Planet Waves initiative has become a reality. The company set out to make a series of top-of-the-line tuners that spanned all needs while maintaining affordability, and its five new tuners accomplish that goal.

The S.O.S. (Strobe-On-String) Tuner uses strobing LED lights projected onto the string to tune. When the strobes stop "moving" on the string, the string is in tune! No input or even sound is necessary. The S.O.S. Tuner retails for $19.99.

The Planet Waves Pocket Tuner is a lightweight, pocket-sized tuner with Planet Waves' sweep/strobe rotary display and is an input/output equipped in-line tuner. The Pocket Tuner retails for $54.99.

The Pro-Winder Tuner combines the best-selling Planet Waves Pro-Winder multi-tool with a chromatic tuner to create an incredibly useful five-in-one tool, including tuner, string winder, string cutter, string stretcher, and bridge-pin puller. The Pro-Winder Tuner retails for $59.99.

The Planet Waves Full-Function Tuner and Metronome is an all-in-one practice workstation for the more serious player. It includes a deluxe sweep/strobe rotary tuner and a professional metronome, allowing beat subdivision and odd time signatures. The Full-Function Tuner and Metronome retails for $119.99.

The Planet Waves Pedal Tuner offers professional features at a competitive price. A rugged, die-cast body with hard black chrome finish houses the tuner, which features a true hard bypass that preserves players' tone when the pedal is not in use. The Pedal Tuner retails for $119.99.

All Planet Waves tuners will ship February 1.
