Description – This is the most comprehensive scale indicator that is made. It contains 36 different scales and 900 reference points. This is a straight edge / scale indicator for checking or determining the position of frets on a instrument. Its made out of anodized aluminum and has exceptional high definition. The markings are engraved so it will never wear out. You can use this tool a variety of different ways: As a straight edge, to determine which scale your instrument uses, as a reference / transfer for making your own instruments, to check fret positions of an instrument, and probably many more we don’t know about yet. Because its engraved you can do pencil transfers from it to a piece of paper. You can also punch the fret positions of the scale you are interested in and drill them to transfer the reference points directly through the tool.

This tool has the following Scales: 11, 12, 13, 14, 15, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20.7, 21, 22.2, 22.5, 22.72, 22.75, 23.5, 24, 24.5, 24.75, 25, 25.125, 25.2, 25.4, 25.5, 26, 26.38, 26.5, 27, 28, 28.625, 29.4, 30,  33.25, 34, 35

 

Products specifications
Anodized Anodized Indicator - Our Anodized indicators are of considerably higher quality. The engravings are sharper and the aluminum of a stronger alloy. They are much easier to read in all lighting conditions. The anodized layer is also 10 times harder than the aluminum so it much harder to scratch.
Temperature Declaration Aluminum can expand and shrink more than you might expect. Its best to use a scale at the same temperature that it was manufactured at. If a scale is machined in a foreign country at 120 degrees Fahrenheit (not uncommon for a manufacturing environment) combined with cnc machining process can push the temperature of the aluminum to 500 degrees or more. And if you used that scale on a cold winter day in your unheated shop it could be off by as much as 1/8 of an inch! That’s why we declare the temperature of which our scales are manufactured at: between 65 and 85 degrees. If the temperature of our metal exceeds this range we stop the process to investigate what is wrong or let the metal cool before continuing. This reduces the thermal variation over the total length to a theoretical maximum of .004in. Typical variations can be found in the .002in range or less.
Fret Note Fret placement on musical instruments are often done by hand and misalignment of the frets as measured by the scale is only an indicator and may not mean a defect in the quality or workmanship of the instrument(s) being checked.
