DimensionsBoss pedal size. Metal chassis and built well like all Boss pedals.
EMail : mikeyh76@hotmail.com This is a very versatile and usefull product. The guys at Boss were thinking when they built this one. Like you'd expect and already know, it's a tuner built in a pedal format. Chromatic, Guitar, and Bass settings w/ flat and double flat presets if you downtune. Of course the chromatic setting is best for all. It also has 2 tuning options w/ stream/cent options. I prefer the cent as it's easier to work with. The BEST feature on this thing is that it doubles as an AC supply/daisy chain. So when I built my pedal board, I've only got 2 AC adaptors hooked up to it! Very clean and very easily managed. It also comes in handy at live shows as a mute switch. So when you tune, it will kill the signal for silent tuning. Or when you switch basses, it'll kill the sound so that the sound man doesn't have to deal with crackles and pops coming through the PA.
