Hi James

We've bought one and it is set up but we haven't used it yet.

We should be binding a couple of guitars in the next few weeks so I'll give a full report when we've used it.

One thing I will mention is that there was a lot of play in the guides and we had to pack it out with washers before it was stable.

I informed Stewmac that they should take a look at this.

Cheers

Then they will. Stew Mack is real good about taking user info and solving issues.

I like the Idea of the tower being made of aluminum, but personaly; I would be hard pressed to be bought off of my hand held luthierstools.com rig. I just find it much more versatile on deep cutaways.

Yep, I have one and find it very good. i think I made a few tweeks before using to remove slack but it produced excellent results. I am very pleased.
