Good price and easy to use, saved time while installing a new Nut and adjusting string height. Its a little rough around the edges. if not careful you can scratch the frets or guitar finish. carefully break the rough/shapt edges with a stone and they work great.

All the basic tools for measurement in one package. Nice, and inexpensive. HOWEVER, the measurment rule for string action is die cut and the edges are sharp with a distinct edge burr that makes accurate measurment impossible (not that measurement to that degree is actually necessary) and presents a sharp edge that can cut your skin or scratch your instrument. Good thing I bought another from a different source a long time ago. More usefull are the tools for measureing and setting the string height to match the curve of the fretboard.

These are not high quality tools, but, with a little work they are definitely good enough for setting up the action on your guitar. They are stamped steel which is fairly thin and have very sharp edges. I smoothed and de-burred the edges of the tools with some 400 grit sandpaper and now they actually work pretty good. With a little de-burring you end up with a very affordable set of set-up tools. One note ::: If you plan on filing your bridge or nut to adjust your action...DO NOT buy the budget files !! They are garbage. The nut files is one tool that you really need to spend the money on to get a good set.

Usable quality. Over all a good value but they took a little refinement. the feeler guages had a fair amount ot (i assume) is an anti rust oil on them that needed cleaning off. Wouldn't want that stuff touching unfininshed wood. Then they were fine. the notched radius gauges had rough edges where the metal stamping took place. but this was easily sanded smooth. Maybe me being picky. the under string radius gauges were fine The string hieght guage is the least quality. the printing / screening is not very well done. blurry and some of it peeled off when removing the plastic adhesive covering. This all maters when you are trying to measure in 1000s if an inch. so you may want to buy a nicer one of these from StewMac or Daddariio

Most of the items are stamped metal with very sharp, protruding burrs. I ran them over a sharpening stone to remove the burrs. The feeler gauges didn't have this issue, luckily, and they are quite accurate as far as I can measure with my caliper. I hope they are made of real stainless steel (not Chinese "stainless"). They were oiled when I received them so no trace of rust. The string action ruler is a joke, it's stamped metal with a screen printed image on it. The image is not aligned with the edge so the measurement is several steps off. I guess you can use it for relative measurements. I tried to grind down the edge, but it's still measuring one step lower than the actual value
