Great luthier tool, make sure you’ve got your vision checked!
4 Stars
Great luthier tool, make sure you’ve got your vision checked!
I use this tool to measure string action and pickup height, although it has other uses as well. It’s a great compact tool for guitar setup. My only complaint is that it can be difficult to read in low lighting and because of the small measurements used. I’d love to see some kind of contrast system to make this easier, but for now I just have to squint a bit.
Thank you for your feedback
