  • "We are really happy with the Multiscale Templates that you provided us". Giulio S., Bologna, Italy

     

    “I’ve just been drawing up full size plans for a tenor guitar, and the layout gauge has already paid for itself for that purpose alone. So much time saved from measuring and marking and joining points. Just line up the slots with the centre line on the paper, choose your body join fret and trace. It’s worth when it comes to neck alignment and bridge placement etc is already very apparent. Wonderful, Thanks!”. Tim P., Bristol, UK.

     

    “Order received promptly and was very pleased. The quality that invites a luthier to do fine work. You'll be hearing from me again for sure”. A. M., American Canyon, USA.
