Fast, efficient clamping for braces, soundboards and backs

Go-bar Clamping System

Time-saving go-bar clamping has become a breakthrough technique for gluing guitar braces, soundboards, backs and more.

Strong flexible "go-bars" are placed under tension between the top of the go-bar deck and the wood being clamped. This eliminates the cumbersome multitude of clamps that slow down the gluing process, and results in more uniform clamping pressure.

We offer hardware and instructions to easily build your own setup, including custom-radiused convex dishes for maintaining accurate soundboard and back curvature.
