What is the best tuner for the pedal steel? I'm going to buy one but wanted to get some opinions.

Yup.

Limited experience, but you can also get a Peterson tuner with appropriate sweeteners as an app on your iPhone.

I have the Peterson app on an iPad, and it sucks. It keeps coming up as an F# note, no matter what string I am tuning. Really a big disappointment.

But, I still believe that Peterson tuners are the best.
