Today's Digital Tuners are like the Digital Watch - at first the technology was rather expensive but soon enough the wonders of modern manufacturing techniques have resulted in them being both prolific and inexpensive. But still very accurate, this due to the quartz circuit timing.

Not uncommon to find a digital tuner inside the Goodie Bag of freebies handed out at conventions, etc. these days.

As to whether or not a specified brand or model is a "good deal" in the sense of it being a long-lasting and robust piece of gear, well, that is going to be much like the aforementioned Digital Watch situation. Some may last and last, others may not.

But for the prices they are going for, who cares?

At 5 to 7 dollar mark, one can pick up TWO of the doggone things and still spend far less money than a single clampon digital tuner would have set ou back just a few short years ago, clamp one on each of two guitars and still have double redundancy in case one of 'em does not perform.
