The Hipshot D-Tuner is admittedly expensive, but is a precision piece of engineering.
I need to play notes below low-E for a number of different genres, but could never get the hang of a five-string bass. This device suits my purposes perfectly. It comes with clear, concise instructions and is easy to fit.
In use, it is simply a case of flipping the lever to drop the fourth string to D. Its operation is accurate and stable.
I found it so useful that I bought another for my fretless bass. This has the added advantage of facilitating parallel octaves across the second and fourth strings.
Recommended.

nice gadget

installed on my fender player precision 4 string i modify for fun it was easy to install and is a nice addon to fast switch to dropped d tuning. keep in mind that it will also have an effect on the strings (slightly detuned) other than the e string, because it lowers the tension of said string. but the same would happen if you would tune your e string to d only and not retune the others string afterwards. if you are ok with this and are willing to pay this price, you get a nice quality gadget to play around and have fun with.

this was easy to install and works well (i was low key surprised that it actually worked). i was also surprised that it holds the tuning pretty well on the dropped note (i even replaced strings and after tuning them the dropped note was in tune)
