Leveling your frets and fingerboard has never been easier with MusicNomad‘s Fret Leveler L-Beam. With three sizes to choose from, 7″ (18cm), 17.6″ (45cm), and 24″ (61cm), no detail was overlooked from top to bottom in creating a new higher standard. Their unmatched thicker wall design lets the weight of the leveler do the work for you. The exclusive ergonomic curved handle design gives you the ultimate comfort and control, plus helps avoid slipping out of your hand. The radius beveled edges keep you from banging into and damaging high frets. Most importantly, the top and bottom smooth flat edges go through a 3-step precision grinding process with an accuracy tolerance of +/-.00125″ per foot. They even include a convenient hang hole and three Adhesive-backed 3M™ Stikit™ Gold Abrasive strips, the preferred choice for top repair shops: (2) P240 Grit, (1) P400 Grit.
“We worked closely with a handful of high volume repair shops to design and test the L-Beams. They all appreciated the unique curved handle design giving them better control and comfort when leveling.” says Rand Rognlien, Founder of MusicNomad
