It wouldn't work. This tuner is no good at all - what a waste of money!


Here's a tip that's worth thinking about. If you buy the 1.5" tilt stand for
your KAT100 don't use it on the tuner. Install the feet on the bottom of the
tuner by all means, but use the bail itself on the K2 then put it on top of
the KAT100 with the bail down. VERY nice indeed.
