Martin SC-13E Tuner slow to respond
My internal electronic tuner on my Martin Sc-13e that I bought a couple of years ago is suddenly very slow to respond especially with the treble strings. Needle just lays flat and then finally moves. Battery was changed about a week a go with no issues. Now all of a sudden this.
Thoughts? Anybody have this happen? I have no issues tuning by other means, but it's kind of nice having it right in the sound hole. I tested the new battery just in case it was as dud and it tests fine.

Turns out my Martin tuner is still under warrantee so it's covered. I'm waiting for a call back hoping Sweetwater can change it out while I wait or within a few hours while the wife and I ship and possibly see a movie in Ft. Wayne Indiana. I live about an hour away and don't want to make a second trip.
OTOH Sweetwater says they can ship it to me if they have to free of charge. Man that place has been so good to me! I just wish they were closer!

I just bought this guitar .I haven't had a chance to even play it yet! It came to me with the action a little high ,so I took it to two diferent guitar techs who made it even worse. Now it is at another guitar tech, hopefully he can do a better job. But the tuner does seem slow , I'll proably use my Snark anyway

O.K. this is weird. Today it's working fine. Go figure. What could have changed? Same battery which I even tested to be fine.

I had a SC13E, one of the first available. I loved it and if I was plugging in a lot would have kept it.
But the tuner was hopeless. Annoyingly slow response and outright useless where there was background boise.
