With the ideal 23° and 3° file angles, no detail was overlooked in designing this revolutionary bevel file. The high-quality, durable Acacia wood ergonomic handle is shaped with a curved radius underside and is wide enough to lay centered across the entire fretboard, providing for unmatched stability when filing. The fully adjustable and replaceable high carbon-steel file includes a double cut side and single cut side, allowing for full customization to meet your needs. Our innovative design includes deeper channel recesses for the file, ensuring the file clears the body. That’s MusicNomad quality, bringing fret care to the next level

Picked this up to trim fret ends to file down fret sprout that occurred as result of seasonal change. Worked great - no damage to side of fretboard. Good weight for smooth movement up and down fretboard. I was even able to use it with strings on. Good value, ease of use and quality. If you own several guitars, a must have in the toolbox👍.

In short (sarcastic):- uneven (imagine you only using this tool for guitar neck, so why bother?)- clamping screws are damaging the file surface (then again, if the wood is uneven, why even bother about damaged file?)- overpriced as hell (but that is "USA made in China" Nomad's normality)It is really sad that a luthier tool will come with such a low quality. I bought new ones from StewMac and some Portuguese company. They are evenly shaped (the radius is correct, and not changing every few centimeters), and the file holding crews are separated from the file by thin steel bars, so the file itself stays undamaged).

This file came with a few quality issues. One of the screws was stripped and therfore kept turning and would not clamp down the file. The other issue was a crack in the wood near the location of the blade. Just a matter of time before the wood would split. It's too bad because the concept is great.

Love the way it cuts fret sprout. There's a 0 degree and 3 degree setting. Bit of masking tape down the sides use the 0 degree first, then the 3 degree after and you dont have to worry about filing each fret at the edge. Dont do what I did, whizz down the neck and it slip off and scratch the frets you've so lovingly levelled, crowned and partially polished. Slow and steady wins the race. Almost foolproof unless it's driven by a fool. I got there eventually.

I waited until I really used this before reviewing. Purchased because I was already pushing my guitar tool budget and needed to save some money, so I chose this over the more expensive StewMac file. I'm so happy with it!! the angles are perfect, the included file is sharp and quality, the slots are big enough to put any other file in too if you want. It's comfortable and very nice looking. Just great, I love it when the more affordable option over-delivers.

I have another like this, but this is superior. It's great that you can change the angle.

As with the other 1-star review showing on Amazon, the included file did not fit in the handle at all. I could attempt to widen the slots, but at this price point that shouldn't have to be done.

Excellent tool, love the 3&23 degree angles. 12 " radius on the block. You can sand the fretboard . Removable file is perfect for levelling under the nut as well, files well on its side edges. Awesome product!
