Strobe Tuners - Have you tried them before?

I was thinking about getting one of these strobe tuners. Have any of you guys tried them before? I was thinking that it would be perfect for setting up intonation on guitars and basses. I've wondered how much better it is compared to my cheapy $20 Korg Chromatic Tuner.

Let me know what you guys think.

The Peterson tuners are probably the best out on the market these days. Everyone seems to love them. I have yet to try one yet and still use my Korg rack tuner which will do stronbe tuning.

I've got the strobostomp. Love it. Takes a while to get used to though.

I've been using a strobostomp for about a year now. Once you get used to using it you'll find it hard to go back to using any other tuner. Even the strobe settings on the korg tuners aren't as accurate as the petersons because because of the use of led's. Its also the only 100% true bypass tuner I know of. I had one problem with mine but peterson quickly took care of it. They're a great company that stands by their products. You can't go wrong with one.

I've always wanted to get one of those. I really need it for intonation!
