I seek suggestions for a clamp-on tuner with clamp big enough for thick bodies.
Thanks
Jim

How thick are we talking about? I usually use a Boss tuning pedal in situations where a clip on tuner doesn't clip on.

Clamp it to anything. Tuner knob, volume knob, whatever will fit. Doesn’t have to be the whole body.

When tuning my Studio Deluxe (Deluxe 8's little brother), I temporarily clamp to the tone control. When I'm done, I re-clamp the tuner to the Deluxe34 bar and pick holder that hangs off one of the back legs. Works for me...
