I have never owned a Hipshot D-tuner, and from what I heard from others in
my experience of working in a music store, I wouldn't have wanted one.
HOWEVER, I recently purchased a Musicman Stingray that had one on it.
I must say that I was very suprised. It holds its tune very well. Drop the
lever down to D and it's there. Flip the lever back up, and it's back at E.
A couple of times I had to tune it slightly. It even stays intonated pretty
close. It's not a bad product. I would recommend them to someone if they
asked.
The bottom line is this: You'll either love it or hate it.
