Have any of you tried the new Peterson Strobe that uses the Buzz Feiten Offsets to tune even more accurate than the Korg DT-7. Here is the url for the VSII, even compares the accuracy of the DT-7 verses the VSII. Big difference in accuracy. The VSII is priced at $199 at musicians friend. More $, but just might be a good investment for me. The more accurate you start in tune, any drift after tuning with the VSII can leave you around the accuracy of the DT-7. Sounds good in theory!

Mikey!
I just ordered the VS-II so I can't answer that question yet! But I do have the VS-I and will say it's worth every penny! So I'm shure this will be a great tuner to have.......

I have the VS-1. Any upgrades available from Peterson?

I don't know if there will be any upgrade on the VS-1, That's why I ordered the VS-II;)

The VS-II is one of my favorite guitar upgrades ever. Whenever I say this I'm accused of being overly dramatic, that is until that same person plays a guitar tuned by the Peterson. It makes me sound like a better guitar player and I'm in tune anywhere up and down the neck. Imagine that.

From what I can tell the major differences between the VS-I and VS-II are cosmetic, not functional, so either one should work great.

Highly recommended!

Looks like the VS-I is not upgradeable:mad:

I'll have to think about selling my old VS-I to someone without a BF system and pickup a VS-II

Here are the offsets to use if your tuning your Anderson with the Peterson tuner!
Or if you have a guitar with the Buzz Feiten Tuning System!
The 12th Fret settings are for intonation.
