PEAKMETER Digital Multimeter

The last multimeter you’ll ever buy!
When getting deep into guitar and amp repair, it is hard to determine what specs you really need to know. Vintage guitars, amps, and pedals have so many parts that differ from the “correct” listed specs, simply replacing parts can change your tone unexpectedly.

Serious about building and repairing pickups, pedals, and amps? Having an accurate multimeter to get the job done right is essential.

You need to know the precise values of your components. Component drift in small parts like capacitors and potentiometers have a big impact on your sound. We have two new multimeters that solve all the problems you’ll face, and have features that will keep these meters on your desk and in your gig bag for years. It’s a must-have for custom wiring jobs, pickup making, finding bad connections and testing components.

Essential for guitar and amp building and repair
There are two models to fit your needs. The compact PM16B model is sized to fit in a case or gig bag and auto ranging for simple operation. The larger PM19C has more sensitive test ranges, and can handle all the voltages you’ll face when working on amps. Each model includes 21″ long heavy duty 10 amp probes.

Simple to use, accurate results

These meters can do all the essential tests you’ll need:

• Function and ohm resistance of control pots and pickups
• Status of diodes in amps and effects
• Mapping out lug functions
• Circuit continuity
• Testing guitar cables for function
• Testing batteries

These meters can measure:

• AC/DC voltage
• Diodes testing
• Temperature (PM19C model)
• Volts
• Amps
• Hertz
• Farads (to measure capacitance)

Bonus! Thoughtful additional features:

• Flashlight and backlit display for dark stages
• Stand to see the meter easily while working
