Guitar tuning program

[The Lost Dog]

 I have a  tuner that clips onto the head of my guitar, and I love it. It
works by vibration. I found it accidentally at The Sharper Image(!). I've
never seen it in their catlogue, though. It cost twenty bucks, and set it to
tune to whatever note you put into it. I've only seen this one, but it is
(or was) made by a company called Onboard Research Corporation. Maybe
Sharper Image could tell you more about it. If you can find one, they are
great.
