Excellent tuner
I've tried rackmount tuners and a couple of other cheaper boxes, but there's no escaping this simply rules the roost.
Excellent accuracy and note acquisition, even for notes on a bass too low to be deemed safe for your trousers.Feels durable and safe to give a good whacking with your foot when using the mute function. Doesn't seem to drain battery life either. My only gripe is that for a top of the range tuner, at quite a few pennies, you're buying literally just a box. No power supply, no case. That's just the way with Boss; but it is the only thing that really holds it back.
For the tl;dr...
Pros:
Durable as mad
Plenty of functionality without being confusing
Very accurate
Very fast to acquire notes
Decent battery life
Cons
Nothing but the tuner is supplied

One of the Best Tuners
By far a brilliant tuner. They are so good, that I bought this one for my Bass pedalboard. I used to steal the one from my guitar rig when I was recording bass, but now with this one I do not need to. It will also pick up a low B string on a bass, so is totally worth it.
I am thinking of another one for just having around.
You can use it as a switch on tuner, where the audio is muted or you can use the bypass and still hear your sound.
I just use the Chromatic setting, but you can use it for various lower “standard” tuning.
The lights are plenty bright to use on a dark stage and still see exactly what you are doing, and the raised part of the screen area can be seen from a good distance away.
If you need a tuner, buy this one. If you don’t need a tuner, buy this one anyway.

Must have pedal in S.C
I stopped having extra tuners or mobile applications in my bags, I placed the specific pedal in my signal chain and I can just do everything ... whoever has the pedal understands ... in terms of durability and quality is not discussed

100% satisfied
Best item in my boss pedal-baord. In live performances, I only take a rapid look to tune the guitar. If you purchase this item, don't forget to switch off other pedals connected an plce it first of the line (in my opinion)

High quality product
I already have Boss clip on tuner and two Korg tuners, but I wanted absolute precision so I bought TU-3 as well. It has a little bit learning curve for using it but the accuracy is what I wanted for, especially for recording sessions. Also, for adjusting intonation on my electric guitars (old Vantage Avenger and new Ibanez RG652 Prestige) it proved to be essential.

Usual top tier Boss quality
Built with the usual Boss quality. To borrow a phrase, 'it just werks'. Very accurate. I have used it in both recording and live settings for over a year with absolutely no issues. Also works as a handy killswitch when you are plugging things into your amp in a live setting.

Industry standard... no need for anything else
The TU-3 is the latest update from Boss on the standard pedal tuner. . It can be the only pedal you have or one on your full effects board. Either way, it works well. Clear display in daylight or on a dark stage and with more steps than the tu-2 even more accurate. Power from the 9v battery it lasts months or as part of your board setup on mains it doesnt load the psu too much so it can tag on the end of a chain of pedals.
used in standard mode its great on both guitars and basses. I have never needed to switch it to any of its other modes!
Construction is excellent. its built like a tank. my kids have dropped kicked stood on wedged under 4x12 cabs, dragged around and generally abused the first one... it still looks almost new and works perfectly. I bought a second one as it was a pain not having another to use when tuning guitars after maintenance and the kids had the only one with them. Thomann has the best price in europe, even with the shipping to the UK. five stars!!!
