StroboStomp LE

75th Anniversary Limited Edition - Only 7,500 Made

Limited Edition compact pedal strobe tuner with pop-less true bypass and buffered output modes. Variable color, LED backlight for maximum visibility in any setting and total personalized control. 10-Year Warranty!

OVERVIEW

Featuring the largest tuning display Peterson Tuners has ever incorporated into one of their pedal tuners, the StroboStomp LE boasts a high-definition, LCD screen that incorporates a variable color LED backlight. The user-selectable colors can be used to personalize the tuner or to increase display viewing quality in different levels of ambient lighting depending on the usage environment. The vibrant screen colors can also be assigned to stock or user presets to significantly reduce menu navigation time and increase on-stage tuning confidence at the gig.

For tone purists, the StroboStomp LE provides a 100% silent, true-bypass operation mode to keep precious tone safe, as well as eliminate the often annoying “pop” experienced when engaging such a feature in other products. It uses a unique series of timed relays incorporated within its circuitry to shunt the signal, draining the cause of the popping sound prior to breaking the connection, and effectively shutting the tuner down for direct play through without affecting tone quality.

The StroboStomp LE also includes a long-time, user-requested buffered output operation mode that can be user engaged. The buffered mode can be used in or out of monitor mode. It is designed to boost instrument drive to overcome potential tone loss in signal chains that incorporate multiple low-impedance guitar pedals or those that utilize long cable runs. The buffered output modes preserve sonic quality all through the instrument range and keep prized core tone intact.

The StroboStomp LE features over 100 exclusive Sweetened Tunings™ as well as numbered guided tuning presets for a large variety of instruments and playing styles. Sweetened Tunings are exclusive to Peterson tuning products and are designed to help correct inherent tuning issues exhibited by many instruments. The new "Guided Tunings" mode allows the StroboStomp LE to display numeric string values instead of traditional note names making for sure-fire intuitive and rapid re-tuning to any number of open and alternative tunings. The Guided Tuning mode was instituted for beginners who want to experiment with popular alternate tunings in addition to experienced players who employ multiple tunings in rapid succession. Numerically expressed scales are also included.

The Peterson company turns 75 years old in 2023. We’re proud to reach this significant milestone that most companies never accomplish. Your new limited-edition StroboStomp LE tuner embodies the best of our past history; who we are today as a company; and our exciting future ahead.

When my father, Richard Peterson, founded our company 75 years ago he did so with remarkable passion for inventing innovative products for the music industry and providing outstanding quality, service and integrity to our customers. Over many decades, we’ve grown to be highly regarded by musicians world-wide yet are still entirely owned by my family and we continue to operate within just five miles of where the company was started. Our staff still shares and lives the same passion and company culture that Dad inspired in the beginning.

The first-ever Peterson tuner was designed and built by Dick Peterson for his own use with tuning pipe organs. Soon a few of his friends and colleagues began asking if he would be willing to build one for them as well. Dad recruited my grandfather to help assemble 5 or 10 tuners at a time on our family’s kitchen table, and my mother would type simple invoices and keep records. Each individual tuner carried my father’s signature on the front panel, representing his personal involvement with the product and his strong commitment to each customer. From those earliest days, my father’s unwavering focus on quality, integrity and customer service have been hallmarks of our company. Today, our StroboStomp LE limited-edition tuner bears that same signature, and the Peterson Company’s commitment to excellence remains unchanged.

Thank you for your purchase and for your trust in our company. We’re grateful for our loyal long-term customers and those newer to Peterson Tuners alike; you’ve all made reaching our 75- year milestone possible. I know you’ll be delighted with your choice and you will notice the difference in your sound…you have my personal guarantee on that!
