Fine, upscale clothing brought to you by COSTCO's. You might be able to get those pants in blue, but you'll have to order 200,000 of them.

67plexi started this thread, and for his first post he featured this following video that should provide you with the info you seek:
 
What is that little pedal looking thingy with the spinning dial? It looks very 1970. Pedal sounds awesome btw.

A Peterson "stroboscopic" tuner, very accurate. I use a Sonic Research ST-300 strobe tuner, accurate to 0.02 cent. Cheers
Edit:- If you watch Sysco's, you will notice it registering sharp on the initial pick attack, then settling into the proper note, showing the accuracy of the unit. Cheers
 
I have a Conn ST-11 Strobotuner , love it but I also do the upkeep to keep it calibrated. Accurate to a 100th of a cent which helps me see the tuning idiosyncrasies of any guitars tuning problems.

Cleaned up perfectly and the clock mechanism is well maintained with sewing machine oil. But for most players I'd suggest Ivan's recommendation for ease of use especially if it is two hundreds of a cent accurate. The Conn is one hundreds but I seriously doubt there are many/ if any folks that can hear a .01 cent difference. So get an ST-300 and watch your ears slowly get much better than you ever have thought they could become! The adjustments are so sensitive that they can drive you insane, if you let it!

That is an iconic tuner you have there. The Conn ST-11 continues to be used by some of the biggest names in music today.15829573760025459456961543713588.png
The Sonic Research ST-300 is the larger of their stompbox strobe tuners, being about the size of an MXR Carbon Copy delay type pedal, & is reasonably pricedIMG_20200229_170148.jpg
The smaller mini sized versions would be too small for my aging eyes on stage (sorry my 'phone camera didn't capture the "E" properly). I can fully relate to your saying how tuners of this sensetivity could drive one insane if you let it. Cheers
 
Well, when you start checking chromatically up the neck and it's all not perfectly in tune I get disappointed I guess and then have to " temper " my tunings to "sweeten " my tunings. If you have the time and feel like it tune like this and I'd love your thoughts ...

E -3 cents
B -6 cents
G -4 cents
D- 8 cents
A- 10 cents
E - 12 cents
Humor me and see what you think? Cause if I need to I'll gladly admit I'm crazyhysterical.gif But the octaves are " sweeter " up the neck. It's just something I've been working on and haven't come to any conclusion yet.

Thanks for the heads-up on the sweetened tuning. I'll give it a whirl during the week when time allows & get back to you. It (the ST - 300) is programmable over quite a range, IIRC, in 0.1 cent increments, A = 300.0 ~ 599.9, with 5 user programmable temperaments or open tunings (again 0.1 cent increments). I'll need to pull out the instruction manual so as to be sure to program it properly, as I've not yet done it.
Regarding the Conn ST-11, there is one, claimed to have toured with Neil Young during the rust never sleeps years listed on eBay at the moment15830089699725950762229774311208.png
Looks to have some battle scaring & no mention of operating condition. Cheers
