from 895 reviewsHowdy from Texas, I ordered three (3) IYV headless basses direct from the Vietnamese manufacturer during Covid, knowing they'd probably need setting up. Oh boy, do they. I have to lower the single bridges to make the basses playable, and the Elmer router base and Dremel 3100 tool will make the job fun to do. Very well priced, too. Thumbs up.
I purchased a nut slotting tool along with the neck relief tool. Just like I said in my review for the nut slotting tool, I do setups on all my guitars and have always wanted to be more accurate in setting neck relief. I’ve been reluctant to buy a tool like this earlier from another manufacturer due to price. This tool is very good quality and I have already performed/checked neck relief on many of my guitars. Very glad I found this product, it shipped quickly and has made setups much easier.
I perform setups on all my guitars and always wanted a dial indicator tool to make it easier. I’ve put off buying one sooner from another tool company due to price. This product is a very nice tool and made my setup much more accurate and didn’t have to spend an enormous amount to get it. It shipped quickly and was easy to use once I got it. Very happy with this purchase!
This is how a fret scale template should be made. And it’s available! Great product, thank you for making quality luthier tools.
This looked like a tool that was more than just 'another gadget' one and done. I couldn't help as soon as it arrived to see how it landed on the neck frets and it fits appropriately. I have not used it on a set up yet but when I got it I zeroed it in on my straight edge then used feeler gauges to alter and it was accurate. I think this will be very handy for adjusting relief 'as you turn' and not having to fumble with feeler gauges at same time. Looking forward to a real set up with it.
Had to replace the caul and #10 insert as they were sitting in a box of water after hurricane Milton and they rusted shut together unbeknownst to me. Could have got just the caul but wanted a full working set as I already have all from Elmer. This system works very well in an arbor press and really seats the fret wire when used in conjunction with the fret bender to match the radius of board.
I've needed one of these and this unit does not disappoint. I had a caul that mounts into a drill press but the added flexibility of a handheld unit is critical, especially on refrets of existing guitars versus new builds. Probably should have bought one of these first.
The jig does exactly what it is supposed to do. Worked perfectly, even for a first-timer as I was.
Quality product at reasonable price.
I used the fret puller on a practice maple wood neck and it did a good job getting under the frets with little to no impact on the wood.
I needed a for Mexican Jazz Bass from 2004. Did a complete fret job, but before that i had to glue the frets down. It was super simple. Worked Great! Now it's like having a new guitar.
Well what a difference i lowered strings to (Low E .020", A&D to 018", G&B 016" High E 014" on my Eastman E2 OM Oh My Goodness, first thing I noticed was Barre Chords are effortless.
This truly was one of my better tool Purchases. The company Elmer were easy to order from item came quickly and well packaged, I am well satisfied with my purchase Thank you to all at Elmer.
Elmer continues to impress me with its customer service. They have always fulfilled all my order requests promptly
Great tool. Great price!
Worked perfectly to sand a Martin guitar saddle evenly and square. It’s built sturdy and feels heavy in your hand. I’ll be using this tool for years to come.
