Strobo-Flip

Has anyone used one of these Peterson tuners? What are the advantages/disadvantages as compared to the VS-II? I do not own either model, but was wondering which is the better buy.

The Strobe o flip is much better - what the VS-II should have been.

Go to the Electronics forum. There are several long threads on the new Strobe o Flip.

The Strobo-Flip is a great piece of gear. I also have a VS-II. The Strobo-Flip is much easier to read, easy to store with no fear of hitting the on/off switch like the VS-II. Lots of neat little gadgets come with the Strobo-Flip.[This message was edited by Bill Bosler on 08 September 2006 at 10:47 AM.]

Thanks for the advice. I also checked the electronics section (guess I overlooked that when I posted the topic). Might have to pick one up.

Also, the SF's standard female 1/4" 20 thread camera mount allows me to install it at line of sight, just in front of my changer... Here's how...

1) Clamp-On single microphone arm attached outwards from the front right leg (the guitar's).
2) 16" Gooseneck attached straight up on #1
3) Small Standard Mic Stand --> Euro 3/8" thread adapter attached atop the gooseneck
4) Small Euro 3/8" --> 1/4" thread adapter attached atop #3 (most decent camera stores will have this)

Then of course, the Stroboflip attached atop all of that.
The SF's so light, that the flex in the gooseneck also protects the SF from any sudden bumps or drunken patrons like me.[This message was edited by Dean Cavill on 08 September 2006 at 02:39 PM.]
