I'm queuing up to get mine!!!!!

I'm very confused as to why this exists as a signature product. Also is this the first signature tuner on the market? 

I don't want to bash the guy because even though I'm not a fan of his, he is really talleneted. His sig on this would really put me off.

Wow.

Go fender marketing dept

I see this is made by Fender.

'YJM' brand in the offing, perhaps? It worked for EVH.
:-S

Do they do a Jimi Hendrix one that isn't very accurate?

Tasteful sig gig-bag too

Did Yngwie not arrive in the states with a strat, a spare pair of jeans and one of these tuners? I'm pretty sure this is the only tuner he's ever used. On stage and in the studio!!

Is it wrong that i quite like that case?

Yes it probably is.

I'll go have a word with myself.....

I think there's a range of Yngwie signature pies in the offing, cause he sure as hell ate all of 'em.

If it were a hard case, I'd be having similar issues.

I like it, but there again I admit to having issues.

Why? It's only a tuner.

Wow, a guitar related item that Bonamassa didn't get his sig on first !

I'd like the tuner, but does it have a setting for "the fury"? ;-)

Had the Fender rep in at my shop a few months ago, was chatting about this. Apparently they had them on display at a NAMM/MESSE last year but hid them at the back so they wouldn't show in the event pictures! Haha!

Does it have a donut holder attachment?














(I'm kidding, I love malmsteen ) )

I love it that the tuner says E, but he tunes to Eb.
Oh, I'm such a geek .....

Octahedron

Eh haven't you heard, you'll play like this if you use his signature tuner!

I really can't listen to his playing. He's obviously skilled to be able to play like that but his tone is just shit! It's just mushy widdly noise.

He's nothing until he has a line of footwear...http://www.vanhalenstore.com/page/VH/CTGY/sneakers

For guitars I can see the point when the signature edition is customised or designed in collaboration with a player, but for a tuner? Can only see it being of use if...

And there was me thinking this was the silliest signature product:

But no, you're right, a signature tuner is even sillier.

Dave_Mc

Joe Bonamassa has a signature product which keeps your volume down? Maybe that does make sense, actually.
