The Relief Gauge helps you reset an unstrung neck without guesswork: Record a gauge measurement at the bridge with the strings installed, and use a brace jack inside the guitar to restore the bridge height when the strings are removed.
The Relief Gauge lets you simulate string tension for contouring the bottom of a new bridge, or for routing a saddle slot: Use the gauge and a brace jack to simulate normal bridge height with the strings removed. After you rout the slot, the saddle will fit more accurately — important for good tone and critical for undersaddle transducer pickups.
Three holes in each end of the aluminum beam adapt the Relief Gauge for a variety of instruments, and a swiveling foot allows free-standing use. The dial indicator is accurate to .001" with adjustable zero point. The Gauge measures 14" x 1" x 1/2".
