Ein tool der Kategorie "wieso habe ich das nicht schon vor langer Zeit angeschafft?".Saitenlage einstellen ist damit eine ache von Minuten, zumal die Skalen auch für alte Leute gut ablesbar sind :-)

It’s actually smaller than I expected, and a lot thinner. I have a proper fret rocker from Stew Mac and this won’t replace it as you could easily bend it. As a measuring tool you won’t find better though. I’ve had multiple such tools over the years and this one is the best for sure.

Pros-- high visibility etched readings- measurements in several scales- 64's, mm, thousandths- instructions & suggested settings right on the ruler- backed by a good brand nameCons-- quite a thin piece of metal- a bit on the pricey sideConclusion-- no more thinking the guitar action is the source of your poor playing, you'll have a clearer idea that it's you, or it's time to take the guitar in for adjustments.

Excellent action gauge ruler. Extremely easy to use due to having all instructions directly printed in the tool. It can also be used to adjust pickup height, which is another plus.

The edges are perfectly straight and it does what a fret rocker is supposed to do.The best thing however, about this tool is the easily read setup guide imprinted on it. Such a simple idea but absolutely brilliant. Love it. Use it once and you will never reach for your 64ths ruler again.The metal is a little on the thin side but thick enough so that there should never be an issue unless you do something stupid.Compared to the cheaper ones available, to me this is well worth the extra money. It is thinner than a StewMac fret rocker, which I'm sure is a quality tool. Having said that, the StewMac has no markings and is nearly double the price. The Music Nomad works for me.

This is probably a little expensive for what it is, but the measurements are accurate, and very easy to read. The sides are very flat and it works great as a fret rocker. Over-priced? Maybe, but the tool is class and I'd rather have quality and pay extra when it comes to the tools I use to keep my guitar set up sharp.
