Now Carring Ko'olau Gold, `Alohi & Manaha Tenor `Ukulele Strings
I'm using a low G set of the `Alohi strings on my main tenor and a high G set of Manaha strings on another tenor and really love these strings. I liked them so much I'm making them available right here on my site.
TUN-Oahu
$19.95
O‘ahu Chromatic Tuner
Designed for all stringed instruments. On the market there are currently a wide variety of clip-on tuners available. Ko'olau's previous Pono P5 tuner was popular, but in today’s competitive market, the great builders and designers at Ko'olau felt that pricing was too high. Their new O‘ahu Tuner is higher quality, a more compact design, and less expensive.
Besides high quality and low cost, the new O‘ahu Chromatic Tuner is simple to use, and works on all stringed instruments. It lacks some of the unnecessary “bells and whistles” of other tuners which offer optional settings and different background colors when in or out of tune, but we decided that quality and simplicity (on or off), and of course, affordability is more important.
The LCD display has one easy to see color, and when in tune, the needle points to the center, also displaying three additional lines along with three lines to display an “in tune” mode. Again, fun frills are impressive, but not really necessary. Also, the clip-on bracket is sturdy and durable.

Tuners
Other then learning to tune by ear quickly and accurately. An electronic tuner or clip-on tuner is a valuable asset to have around. Quick and east to use.
As a private guitar and ukulele teacher. I use an electronic tuner tuner to tune beginner students' out of tune instruments quickly in a lesson until they learn to do it their self or come in with the instrument in tune. You would be surprised as to the number of out of tune instruments students try and start their lesson with. I ask them when the last time they tuned their instrument and it is never today.
So any tuner that I have, and I have a few, gets a lot of real world use.
I buy and try out all the new ones on the market.
Manufactures

The Intellitouch® PT10 "Mini" look promising.
- Kala
This tuner is available right here.
- Korg
clip-on not durable for professional use. Attachment point weakens over extended use. I retired mine to the drawer of under achievers afer a few months of uset.

I've had several of these. They come in under various brand names. It rattles when kept clipped on to a guitar or ukulele. And the do tent to stay on your instrument for quick adjustments.

( from WidipediA: ) An electronic tuner is a device used by musicians to detect and display the pitch of notes played
on musical instruments. The simplest tuners use LED lights or a needle to indicate approximately
whether the pitch of the note played is lower, higher, or approximately equal to the desired
pitch. More complex and expensive tuners indicate more precisely the difference between offered
note and desired pitch. Tuners vary in size from units that can fit in a pocket to table-top
models or 19" rack-mount units. The more complex and expensive units are used by instrument
technicians, piano tuners and luthiers.
LED Tuner
A needle, LCD or regular LED type tuner uses a microprocessor to measure the average period of the waveform. It uses this to then drive the needle or array of lights. The array of lights from LED that appears to move to left or right seems better than the meter needle of the early meter tuners. When the musician plays a single note, the tuner senses the input from the microphone or input jack (from an electric instrument). The tuner then displays the input frequency in relation to the desired pitch and indicates whether the pitch of that note is lower, higher, or approximately equal to the desired pitch. With needle displays, the note is in tune when the needle is in a 90o vertical position, with leftward or rightward deviations indicating that the note is flat or sharp, respectively. Tuners with a needle are often supplied with a backlight, so that the display can be read on a darkened stage. An early (1970s) meter needle tuner seemed inferior (more difficult to use) than the more expensiver light emitting diodes (LED) type.
Strobe Tuner
Strobe tuners (the popular term for stroboscopic tuners) are the most accurate type of tuner. There are three types of strobe tuners: The mechanical rotating disk strobe tuner, an LED array strobe in place of the rotating disk, and "virtual strobe" tuners with LCD displays or ones that work on personal computers. A strobe tuner shows the difference between a reference frequency and the musical note. Even the slightest difference between the two will show up as a rotating motion in the strobe display. The accuracy of the tuner is only limited by the internal frequency generator. The strobe tuner detects the pitch either from an TRS input jack or a built-in or external microphone connected to the tuner.
Strobe Tuner Manufactures
I have accumulated several electronic tuning devices over the years from the pitch pipe I got with my first guitar 40 plus years ago, to a tuning fork and several electronic tuners that live in my guitar case and on on my ukuleles today.
I don't even have my students learn to tune by ear until well into playing the guitar. I have them get an electronic tuner and ALWAYS play in tune. This trains their ear and they learn what an in-tune guitar sounds like and can then learn to tune the guitar by ear.
Here is a review the current crop of clip-on tuners that I have and still use today.
Here is a page of reviews on the tuners that I have used in the past and still use and reccommend.

- (Ono) Brand of Ukulele!!!
Hi, I’m Mike Upton, founder of Kala Brand Music Co. and Kala Brand Ukulele. I became acquainted with the charm of the ukulele at an early age as my Dad would strum the "uke" and sing old standards, entertaining the family, neighbors, and worshiping in Church. The sweet, soothing sound was the best pacifier for a fidgety child like yours truly, so as I grew up, you guessed it, I started playing the bass. Four strings like the uke, only much larger and able to rattle your teeth with the proper amplification i.e. Ampeg SVT 300 Watt Tube Head through a 8x10 cabinet. Anyway, back to the ukulele, I re-engaged with the uke while living on heavenly Lanikai Beach in 1991 with my lovely wife, Wendy. You were just starting to hear and see more and more people playing ukulele back then. My interest continued as I became the Hawaii Sales Representative for the Hohner Company in 1997. I found out very quickly that there were very few quality, affordable ukuleles available in the Islands. So with that in mind, I set out and with some help developed the popular ukulele line. In July of 2005 I went out on my own to start Kala Ukulele to continue to expand what is possible in the realm of quality, affordable instruments for the Ukulele Enthusiast and Novice alike.
SO LET ME INTRODUCE TO YOU, KALA BRAND UKULELE
... the result of this ever-expanding vision of quality, affordable ukuleles. With
over 40 models currently offered, there is an instrument to fit everyone's tastes
and budget. Please check out our Hawaiian Koa, Solid Spruce Top, Mahogany and
Kala Color Ukuleles, and see if you don’t find what you are looking for. Stay
tuned for over 15 new models for 2006, including Archtop Ukuleles, Mango Ukes,
and All Solid Wood Ukuleles!!

Tuner, Metronomes and more...
(from their site) -
In the early 1960s, Korg founder Tsutomu Katoh was a nightclub proprietor. A popular Japanese accordionist and engineer named Tadashi Osanai performed regularly at Mr. Katoh’s club, and one evening, Mr. Katoh told Osanai it would be nice to have a rhythm machine to keep the beat. Mr. Osanai was sure he could build a rhythm machine himself, and convinced Mr. Katoh to finance his efforts.
In 1962, Mr. Katoh rented a small workshop alongside the Keio (pronounced Kayo) railway line so he and Mr. Osanai could develop a mechanical rhythm machine. Mr. Katoh named the fledgling enterprise Keio Electronic Laboratories, which later became Korg — a derivation of the words “Keio” and “ORGan.” Their first rhythm machine was ready in 1963. It was called the Disc Rotary Electric Auto Rhythm machine, but its more popular (and easy to say!) name was the DoncaMatic DA-20. Korg went on to release many models of “Drum Machines,” as they came to be known.

Editor's Note: (August 2009)
I have this Chromatic Headstock Tuner and it appears to be pretty durable.
I would reccommend this clip-on tuner over some of the others. No rattles, no weak attachment point and
pretty quick in recognizing the notes.
Only for right handed guitars.
Company History
In 1994, Howard and Robert Silagy started a small guitar strap company in Hicksville, N.Y. Their approach to business was simple: make attractive, durable straps using high-quality materials and people will buy them. Over the next four years, the company grew, with sales skyrocketing because of the growing popularity of Planet Waves colorful, attractive designs and the line's thick, heavy-duty leather tabs.
In 1998, D'Addario & Company, Inc. acquired the Planet Waves line and it joined D'Addario's world-renowned family of musical instrument accessory brands. D'Addario envisioned the line as more than just accessories for guitarists, but for musicians as a whole.
Chromatic Headstock Tuner precisely tunes guitars, basses and many other stringed instruments utilizing the instrument's vibrations rather than sound - no direct sound or electronic signal is required. Using an optimally positioned, highly sensitive piezo transducer and backlit LCD display, the Headstock Tuner allows you to tune quickly and accurately in noisy or dimly-lit environments where many tuners fail. The compact, lightweight design doesn't add cumbersome mass to your instrument and delivers clear viewing from any angle. Simply clip on and tune up!
The Tru-Strobe Tuner is an extremely accurate pitch measurement device, perfect for settling intonation, recording and live performances where being in tune is of the utmost importance. The tuner’s heavy-duty construction includes a built-in microphone and input jacks for tuning acoustic, as well as electronic instruments. The slightest difference between input frequency and the ideal frequency accumulates over time, and appears as movement on the circular LED interface. Once the movement stops, you are perfectly in tune.

All US orders are shipped USPS Priority Mail® or USPS First-Class Mail® (under 1lb) and delivery dates are not predictable. I do not check on an order not received until three weeks have elapsed since it was shipped. Three weeks is not how long it takes to get your order. Rather, it is how long it takes to convince us that something is wrong. Some orders are returned by the USPS and we have to wait to see if that has happened before any action is taken. Thanks, Curt Sheller Publications.
