D'Addario Eclipse Headstock Clip On Guitar Tuner, PW-CT-17BK, Black Black Battery
Overview
The D'Addario Eclipse Headstock Clip-On Tuner (PW-CT-17BK) is a compact, vibration-sensing chromatic tuner built for guitarists and other stringed-instrument players who need fast, reliable tuning on stage, in rehearsal, or at home. Its full-color vertical display and multi-swivel head give clear visibility from different angles and allow mounting in front of or behind the headstock for right- and left-handed instruments. With calibration from 430–450Hz and an included CR2032 battery, it supports alternate pitches and quick on-the-go setups. Auto power-off and a discreet profile make it a practical choice for gigging musicians, teachers, students, and hobbyists who want precise tuning without bulky equipment or noisy pickup interference.
