Cheap tuner pedal recs
Don't wanna go above £40, just a bit overwhelmed by all the choices. Held off too long buying a tuner for my setup for whatever reason.

Buy a used polytune mini. You can get them for your price range used.

Hotone.
it's the size of 2 9v batteries, cost me $80cad new.
it sits on top of my fuzz to save space on the board.

I've got a Polytune Clip that has the district advantages of being both small and completely out of the signal path. Brand new, they're around US$70. Can't imagine a used one would be more than your price range.

Used Boss or a Planet Waves tuner. The planet waves is true bypass, if you care about that.

Korg, I just bought an old DT-10 that has the features I needed. Before that I had an Ibanez LU20. Yes I live in the past. Both are cheap money.

You'll easily find a used Korg Pitchblack for £40.
Great little pedal!

Re: Cheap tuner pedal recs
korg pitch black is usually £30 used.
edit. as i was typing this, you mentioned you got a TU-2. fun fact. you can power boss ACA pedals off the 9v out.

Re: Cheap tuner pedal recs
See above but yeah I would go with a used Boss, TC, or Korg. All will be way better than the "budget" ones. I tried one of those recently and it just completely died on me. Worth paying for the brand name IMO.
Yeah, used TU-2 was a good choice. That's what I would do in your shoes for sure.

Re: Cheap tuner pedal recs
My TU-2 is over 20 years old and still going strong.
The second always-on output is really handy, and yeah you can daisy chain a few others from it.
