Fit bindings on any instrument perfectly

TrueChannel Binding Routing Jig

A standard router base tilts as it rests on the body of an acoustic guitar or archtop instrument. The bindings won't fit correctly into a ledge routed this way. Our TrueChannel jig turns your laminate router into a floating cutter for perfectly squared binding ledges, regardless of the angle or curvature of the instrument surface. As you move the body of the instrument into the cutter, your router glides vertically on smooth rollers to follow the body's upper edge. The bindings will fit correctly — no need to scrape them too thin.

Sold individually or SAVE $25.00 when you buy both the jig and router bit set.

Instructions
 
Our TrueChannel jig includes a sturdy aluminum router support post with gliding router carriage, four body support blocks that adjust for body shapes and heights, a shaped plywood guitar body form, and assembly instructions. Our thanks to luthier Tom Ribbecke, who inspired this jig.

The TrueChannel jig fits most popular laminate trimmers. You can also add holes for brands that don't fit the slots provided.

SAVE $25.00 The TrueChannel jig is also available with our #1298 router bit set. Designed especially for luthiers, the set features a super-sharp carbide-tipped bit with 1/4" arbor, and custom bearings for cutting the most common binding widths.

Save production time: The router carriage is available separately. You can install carriages on separate routers that are setup to cut specific binding channel sizes.

Make additional setups for other body sizes: The plywood form and body support blocks are also available separately.
