Hi Stuart,
The Strobe Tuner 1.5 ($15) from Katsura Shareware is certainly accurate
enough for checking frets w/ scads of temperments but is Mac only and
is anchored to the computer.
The Korg Orchestral Tuner OT-120 just got redesigned: no new features,
bigger box & less ergonomic, no clip-on mic, 2 AAA batteries (instead
of the previous 2 AA) but no price increase ...so far: ~$100-$120. It
works well enough but you can't see the cents in enough detail to trust
for frets, especially meantone placements.
This is as far as my experience goes.

Fairly recently, Gordon Gregory gave a talk at a Lute Society meeting

he recommended. His talk is in copy of Lute News which I can't find.
Anyone got any advice/recommendations on tuners? Do people use them to
position frets too?
