For accuracy: read the wood, not the frets
Notched Straightedge
Now available for bass! Developed in our shop, the notched straightedge has become a standard for evaluating fretboards. The notches fit right over the frets so you can check the straightness of the fretboard itself, without the interference of worn or badly-seated frets.

This straightedge is 18" x 1-1/2", and machined of nickel-plated hardened steel (0.140" thick). Coated with a satin finish, so you can mark it with a pencil (cleans off easily). Accurate to within .0015" per foot.
One edge is notched for Fender, Martin, and long-scale Gibson fretboards. The other edge fits short-scale (24-3/4") Gibsons.

 | December 18, 2008 I ordered the Notched Straightedge. When it arrived I compared it to my StewMac 24" straightedge and another standard I keep safe. Both of your edges were dead on and I was able to get perfect relief (.007 to .010)...as always, you folks deliver a fine product with extra fine service. |  |  | J E Tobey Davenport, IA |  |

 | I couldn't adjust necks, or do accurate fretwork without the notched straightedge. |  |  | Dan Erlewine Athens, OH |  |
