Tuners and volume pedals are two things that guitarists frequently place at the front of their effects chain, so why not combine them and save space? The Ernie Ball VPJR Tuner features the same grade-A design as the company’s other volume pedals, along with a fast, accurate chromatic tuner and a graphic volume display. Besides offering convenience, this pedal is also a godsend to guitarists with long effects chains, thanks to its discrete buffer circuit. The VPJR Tuner boasts a junior-sized chassis that’s built from aircraft-grade aluminum — a benefit, considering that it’s designed to be stomped on. The VPJR Tuner is a killer two-in-one pedal.
