Basic Setup Kit

Awesome - the straight edge and the string height gauge are very useful. the radius gauges make it much easier to check the radius.

It is amazing how much easier it is to adjust your guitar when you can actually SEE the change in measurments rather than just eyeballing it. I should have bought this years ago. Anyone who has ever adjusted a single screw on their guitar would be doing themselves a favor by purchasing this kit.

The Giftee was really please with the Basic Setup Kit,

After decades of setting up my and my friends' guitars by feel and sight, this makes (setting-up)life a lot easier and faster and better! I'll be back for more handy tools!

Very useful - but it should include the fret rocker

basic kit. always need more tool

Thats right, I said it. Anyone that plays, works on, or builds guitars NEEDS this kit. Hands down the best tools in my box. Even if your a beginner Luther, or a beginner player, make this your first purchase and you will thank yourself over and over again.

I have been "sight adjusting" my own guitars for over 40 yrs with mediocre success. Then I purchased the "Basic Set Up Kit" from Stew-Mac. Man, what a difference!! I have now re-adjusted every guitar I own and even more for friends, and the best compliment I could ever think of getting is the one I have gotten over and over....."I just can't quit playing this guitar now. It's like recieving a brand new instrument!" Great job Stew-Mac! These tools are indespensable!!

This was my first purchase from the fine folks at Stewart MacDonald! Thanks for getting me into stringed instrument work, painlessly!

These tools are a must have in every guitarists tool kit. The string height gauge makes setups extremely consistent from guitar to guitar. The directions are clear and very easy to follow. I setup my Les Pauls upon receiving the kit. And they all play virtually identical to each other now. The radius gauge got my Strat playing beautifully after I set the string height on the E strings. Stew and Mac, where were you when I was 14? Buy this kit and remember why you bought that guitar in the first place. Before you buy a pegwinder, buy this kit, seriously !
