True strobe tuners like the Peterson, or the Conn in the past, are about 20-30 times more accurate than LED or meter based tuners.
Doing my job, I rely on these to keep things really on the money. Not only are they spot on for each tuning pass, but they are also indispensable for setting up the guitars/basses and for getting the intonation perfect, which makes a big difference to how chords ring in different places in the neck.
When you're laying down multiple tracks of guitar on top of each other, the higher resolution that these afford you will help you keep everything ringing nicely together.
In the studio, prior to laying down guitars and bass, I usually end up quickly fine tuning the intonation of every instrument, just so that we know that we're starting off on the right foot.
