I recommend them highly to students, amateurs and the professionals. They are accurate, sturdy (I’ve dropped mine on the floor many times with no damage), lightweight and batteries last a long time in them, unlike some other brands of tuner. This model is a tuner only; no metronome is included. I actually used to use the Korg combo of tuner and metronome, but that model goes through batteries a lot faster, and the metronome isn’t loud enough. My current favorite set up is to have the Korg chromatic tuner (no metronome) plus the Seiko quartz metronome model SQ50V in my bag at all times. The batteries last seemingly forever and they’re reliable, sturdy, and top quality, at a reasonable cost. I don’t want to use my phone for tuning and a metronome unless I need a back up for a very brief time., and is used only for a very short time. I don’t want my phone out in rehearsals, concerts and practice times. Have top quality in the Korg instead. Really, this is the best. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of my favorite tuners *by on Reviewed in the United States April 25, 2020* This is my third Korg tuner of this nature. I have a CA-30, a CA-40 and now the CA-50. They are all good. The CA-30 has one feature lacking in the CA-40; an output jack. The CA-40 and CA-50 has both in and out, so you can plug in a guitar or device on the input side and then plut into an amp on other device on the output side. I have routinely plugged my CA-40 into another tuner (usually a Korg pitchblack). Why? Because the CA-40 was easier to read, particularly at distance or in bright sunlight. The Pitchblack then became largely a mute switch while I was tuning even though the Pitchblack costs $100+.The reason I got the CA-50 was because after many years the mic on the CA-40 stopped working. I could still plug in/out of the CA-40 and could still use the CA-30 for that... but for the price the CA-50 with the larger display seemed like something I wanted to add. The CA-50 is essentially the same tuner as the CA-40, but again, with the larger display. It seems to have the same accuracy.About the accuracy of all these Korg tuners? They are SO accurate that I can intonate my guitars and basses with them. They are much more accurate than most clip-on tuners, particularly Snark tuners. This is particularly a great instrument for tuning band instruments. It's response time is very fast, much faster than many cell phone tuners. Because it is a dedicated tuner you can get it turned on quickly without having to scroll through menus.Any downsides to this tuner? If you're in a quiet room the mic works great. If you're in a loud (or quiet) environment the plug-in feature works great. However, if you're in a loud environment and don't want to plug in, only then are you better off with a clip-on tuner. And for that I recommend the Korg Pitchcrow over all but the TC Electronic Polytune or the Peterson clip-on Strobotune. The only other downside that I can see is that this model does not have a built-in metronome. I have several stand-alone metronomes so that was not an important feature for me. I guess this review makes me a Korg fan-boy, but I assure you I have no relationship to Korg other than being a customer. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Priced Right *by on Reviewed in the United States January 19, 2026* This is a quality tuner, instructions for use are easy to follow. It is large enough to see the screen information without being cumbersome. ## Frequently Bought Together - Other, / Tuner (CA50) - Korg Tuner (CM300BKRD) --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ae/products/59194945-ca-50-chromatic-tuner-for-orchestral-instruments-w-memory-backup](https://www.desertcart.ae/products/59194945-ca-50-chromatic-tuner-for-orchestral-instruments-w-memory-backup) --- *Product available on Desertcart United Arab Emirates* *Store origin: AE* *Last updated: 2026-06-23*
