OK, so I tried doing a private message, but I don't belive EB supports such a concept.

Nice. Thank you!

Hey Narcist,

This is going to seem like it's coming out of nowhere but I saw something in a submission of yours that I wanted to go over with you. The way to tell the difference between a BOSS TU-2 and TU-3 is not the coloration of the print but the size of the LED bulbs on the tuning track. The TU-3 has much smaller bulbs to allow for more accurate indication of the cents. The TU-2 has big bulky bulbs and only about half the amount of the TU-3. I wanted to send you a message but I couldn't think of a way that you'd get it :)

This is entirely accurate. Also, Boss kindly print TU-2 on the TU-2 and TU-3 on the TU-3, but in small board photos of famous dude's gear the size and number of the LEDs is a good reference. I am surprised anyone who likes pedal tuners still uses the Boss TU series. THey have a mediocre buffer and the LED display is really mediocre compared to more modern offerings like Korg's true bypass Pitch Black series, the mighty Peterson StroboStomp and the outstanding TC Polytune.

GEAR:
  • Roland Juno-6
  • Gibson SG Standard
  • Vox AC30 Guitar Combo Amp

Petersons are taking over the world certainly. I own the Korg Pitchblack Pro rack unit but mainly because I believe it has the best visual representation and it's the easiest to see across long distances. Petersons technically beat it in speed, especially on the low B and < on basses slightly, and I mean SLIGHTLY as well as have it beat in cents marks. For the $300 price difference, I would still suggest the Pitchblack. If money wasn't an option I would say to get a Peterson Strobe for the studio and the pitchblack for the stage. I own a TU-3 but only have it due to a mass craigslist bundle that had it as part of the package. I've never even tried it out yet.

Noted. Thanks for the tip, I'll keep that in mind on my submissions.

EDIT: Actually, I had a reason. I noticed when comparing the two, the TU-2 has faded lettering, the other of which is more vibrant. I never thought of led-bulb size, thought. Like I said, noted.
