From the TU-2 to the TU-3: BOSS's benchmark "stage tuner"
The direct successor to the legendary TU-2, the BOSS TU-3 retains everything that made BOSS tuners a stage staple: an indestructible compact format, immediate readability, and ergonomics designed for live performance. It's the kind of utility pedal you place first in your chain and forget about... until the moment it saves a guitar change, a soundcheck, or a cue.
Who is the BOSS TU-3 for?
The TU-3 is designed for all guitarists and bassists, from beginners who want stress-free tuning to touring musicians who demand a reliable tool night after night. It is especially relevant for rock, pop, metal, blues, and contemporary music styles, whenever you switch between standard and dropped tunings. In the studio or rehearsal, it speeds up takes and secures intonation, while remaining perfect for a compact pedalboard.

Following my message yesterday
“As far as the order is concerned, nothing particular except that I have just received a message to tell me that I will be delivered on November 9, that is to say next week. In this case, I regret having paid 4.99 euros more to theoretically have it within 24 hours. If I had known I would have taken the free shipping costs, I would have saved this amount spent for nothing since the shipping times are almost the same!”
Bad information from the delivery person, the package was delivered this morning. So my apologies to WB, it worked normally.”

Excellent product: THE reference in tuning pedals!
As someone who wanted to be able to quickly tune in to lower tones, I was served!
Already spent 48 hours with my pedal, and I can tell you that at no time did I regret this purchase!
As for WOODBRASS, as usual, careful package, delivery within the promised time.
A big thank you to the whole team who took care of my order!Automatically translated

I hesitated for a long time to buy a tuner using an app on my smartphone instead. I should have bought this pedal before the others: easy to use, very intuitive, very accurate tuning (unlike the app on my phone), robust product (like all Boss pedals!).
A must have on your pedalboard!Automatically translated

An essential pedal: very precise, no need to unplug to tune, quick handling, and the big advantage is that with this pedal, you can power other pedals (presence of an OUT plug and an IN plug above the box). In short, an EXCELLENT pedal!
