StewMac 12-inch Guitar Neck Relief Dial Gauge
When to choose it
Choose this tool if you want the beam-and-indicator method to check relief. Set the reference as the gauge instructions specify, then record the reading with the same support points for any later comparison.
The 12-inch tool has a fixed span. Compare the instrument geometry and reference method with a string-and-feeler check before deciding which tool is appropriate for the job.

Care and other choices
Questions about this product
Does this include a truss rod key?
It is a measuring tool. Use a separate driver if the instrument requires an adjustment.
Is the beam meant to cover any instrument neck?
Check the span and the gauge procedure for the instrument you work on.
How does it compare with a feeler set?
The dial tool uses its own beam and probe. A feeler blade tests a gap at a specified point.
