Ortega OCST-1BK Soundhole Tuner – Black
Less time searching drawers. More time playing guitars.
I have an acoustic guitar in nearly every room of my house. Whether that’s sensible is a discussion for another day.
What wasn’t sensible was the ritual of picking one up, discovering it needed tuning, then wandering around opening random drawers in search of an elusive clip-on tuner. Nothing kills a spontaneous wee play quite like a household treasure hunt. And I’ve no patience for phone tuner apps.
Enter the Ortega OCST-1BK.
This discreet little tuner clips into your guitar’s soundhole - and LIVES there - ready whenever you need it.
It’s accurate, easy to use, and the display turns fully green when you’re in tune. Simple. Lovely. And it switches itself off when I forget.
Every acoustic in my house now has its own. Whichever guitar I pick up, the tuner is already there. It’s become one of my favourite bits of kit by solving one small but irritating problem.
Is this a sales pitch? Yeah, technically. But it’s also completely true. I use these at home, I love them, and I’m very happy to recommend them.
