Announcing the HA-40, a compact and dedicated tuner for Hawaiian instruments. The HA-40 supports a variety of tunings for the ukulele and steel guitar. It features a highly visible display with easy to use functionality.

Dedicated and precise tuner for Hawaiian music performers

Korg, who has sold over twenty million tuners worldwide, has now created the HA-40, a dedicated tuner for the instruments of Hawaiian music; the ukulele, taken up by numerous people because of its beginner-friendly ease of playing, and the steel guitar, widely loved for its distinctive sound and performance technique.

In spite of its compact size, the HA-40 is a high-precision LCD tuner with a detection accuracy of better than +/-1 cent, allowing you to tune accurately. It's designed with the motif of a turtle, beloved in Hawaii as a guardian deity of the ocean.

Support for various types of Hawaiian performance tunings

The HA-40 has a detection range of C1 @bbbbb (24.500 Hz) to C8 (4186 Hz), and also allows you to tune sharp or flat relative to standard pitch. You can also adjust the pitch up or down in semitone steps and tune your instrument with a capo still attached.

The HA-40 supports a variety of tunings for Hawaiian instruments, two modes for ukulele and five for steel guitar. For the ukulele, the HA-40 provides LOW-G tuning suitable for solo performance as well as D tuning (American tuning) which raises the conventional C tuning by one step. A broad range of pitch detection is also supported allowing you to even tune steel guitars that have more than six strings.

Sound Out mode

The HA-40's Sound Out mode uses the internal speaker to play a reference tone for each string of the instrument you're tuning. This allows you to tune more accurately by using both eye and ear as well as train your sense of pitch by listening to the reference tone.
