You Need This Advanced Luthier Tool for Your Best Guitar Setups: FretGuru XT Walkthrough & Deep Dive

Описание: FretGuru XT is the most advanced, accurate, precise - and capable - guitar measurement tool ever created. That’s why it’s the Mother of All Guitar Gauges*.

Building on the foundation laid by the original, compact-yet-mighty FretGuru 2 (8-in-1 Guitar String Action Gauge), the expanded format of FretGuru XT (9-in-1 Advanced Ultra-Precision Guitar String Action Gauge with MOAGG* Technology) is a leap forward for demanding guitar techs and luthiers.

FretGuru XT maximizes the useful features of the original revered by A-List luthiers and top guitar techs, while bringing new and exclusive, game changing capabilities to your workbench, while still pocket-sized tool.

FretGuru XT MOAGG Technology & Feature Exclusives:

New Bridge and Pickup Spacing Ruler: This exclusive, first of its kind function eliminates the guesswork of knowing which bridge and pickup spacing you have, or need (or want ;-). No precision calipers? No problem! SAE and Metric for F-Spacing, G-Spacing, acoustic and many more!

Expanded, 4-Sided Fret Rocker Functionality with Extra Thickness: Helps you accurately and seamlessly find any high frets up to 24th fret and beyond on many guitars and smaller stringed instruments! Made of robust, extra-thick surgical stainless steel. Advancing from the already incredible FretGuru 2, FretGuru XT is over 40% larger in surface area and nearly 40% thicker than FretGuru 2, meaning you’ll feel less need for a separate, dedicated fret rocker.

New Angled-Depth Gauge / Rule Placement: Allows for easier maneuverability when measuring pickup height, with improved clearance of the neck and bridge.

Redesigned Fret Height / Fret Wear Notches: Provides a positive tactile feel during use, with effortless and accurate fret measurement. You can now feel it working.

New Hang Hole: Smooth, elegantly chamfered hang hole means your FretGuru XT gauge will always be within easy reach on your pegboard or tool wall with your other tools for quick-draw measurements.

FretGuru XT / FretGuru 2 String Action Gauge Shared Features:

Laser-Etched Markings & Anti–Glare-Coated Black Finish: Supreme readability with no printing to rub off.

Microscopic Flatness On All Sides: Ensures precise measuring, thanks to every FretGuru String Action Gauge being individually laser cut/ultra-precision CNC machined, and then diamond honed and polished edges. You'll marvel at the silky smooth edges, and how obsessive attention has gone into them. No scratched frets, guaranteed! There are 45+ steps and separate moves by CNC machine or by hand that go into the edges alone for FretGuru XT.

High-Quality, Precision Stainless Steel Construction: Engineered from the ground up as a precision measuring and evaluation gauge (not just a re-purposed, imprecise metal business card like competitors).

*Competitor gauges are lucky to get a quick run on the belt sander (at best).”

*It’s your ideal guitar measuring tool, without constraint / size limitations, and, mind-blowingly, as much as 70.6% thicker than competitors.

Exceptionally Comfortable: Holding it in hand feels great thanks to masterfully beveled edges and rounded corners.

Dual Precision String Action Rulers: For 0.010” measurements (ten thousands of an inch up to 0.130”) or 64th” measurements (1/64ths of an inch up to 9/64” ) — including half increments in .005” and .5/64th (½ of a 64th) measurements!

Shop Rule Function: For general precision measuring up to 2-1/4” in 1/32” increments.

Depth Gauge/Rule Function: For measuring pickup heights, saddle height, acoustic saddle slot depth, and more.

Fret Height/Fret Wear Depth Notches: Helps you quickly decide on just a setup or more advanced fret leveling without specialized calipers. Instantly figure out fret size when guitar shopping. Quickly evaluate your guitar and determine whether your frets can be leveled, or need replacement.

Extra-Thin Nut Slot Height Measuring Corner: The thin corner is an engineering feat in itself, measuring just 0.0095” thick, which allows you to rest the gauge in any nut slot (as small as the high e-string, .010”) and then across to the second fret, so you can glide a feeler gauge between the gauge and 1st fret. This helps you avoid tone-killing fret buzz and notes that pull sharp on the fret few frets. FretGuru XT also includes a new on-gauge diagram and specs chart for easy referencing!

Inch/Metric Conversion Chart: Etched on the back to save you time when working between SAE and metric parts. Larger type on FretGuru XT for easier readability.

Included Genuine Leather Protector Sleeve: Expertly crafted and heavy-duty stitched for long-term durability. Also features a pegboard hang hole and a classy hot-branded FretGuru logo. A very premium addition that guarantees your investment lasts a lifetime.

Pricing and Availability: FretGuru XT is now available on Amazon US and fretguru.com/fretguru-xt priced at $37.99.
