## Description

Being able to measure your neck relief is a critical step in the setup process. MusicNomad's precision Truss Rod Gauge will help you do it quickly & accurately. The gauge comes equipped with the 3 most common relief measurements (.006”, .008”, .010”). Instructions printed right on the handle makes it extremely easy to dial in your neck relief. It’s perfect for electric, acoustic, classical & bass guitars & features laser etched markings that take the guesswork out of which gauge to use for each instrument. It’s made of premium stainless steel construction without the annoying, messy oil found on traditional feeler gauge sets. We even included an innovative pick capo to assist in the process. That's MusicNomad quality – raising the bar in equipment care.

Review: If you're performing the maintenance on your guitar, this tool is a must-have. - If you're like me, and you prefer to do the set-ups and maintenance on your guitar, this neck relief gauge tool is a must have. It consists of three feeler gauges, one for electric guitar, one for classical guitar, and one for acoustic guitar/bass guitar, and a "pick capo", which when used per the instructions, will determine if your guitar's neck needs a truss rod adjustment. The instructions are laser-etched on the tool and easy to read and follow, which really helps demystify the process of adjusting a truss rod, which even experienced guitar players are sometimes reluctant to attempt, but it is not nearly as difficult as many believe, especially when using tools like this one. So if you want to keep your guitar playing and sounding great, and you don't want to find and pay a guitar-tech every time your guitar needs a set-up, then this tool is a must have, and one that will pay for itself the first time you use it.
Review: Compact tool important to have in your guitar kit! - Does as designed, simple to use, would recommend.

## Questions & Answers

**Q: What is the thickness of the pick capo used on the 1st fret?**
A: Doesn't specify the thickness of the Pick (Capo) on the Pick or on the packaging but is @ 1.00mm thick (you cannot bend it) so in my honest opinion it does the job.

**Q: For bass, some well-known techs in youtube use .015, but nomad's only comes with .006, .008 (for bass?) and .010. why this difference? who's right?**
A: This kit you capo the 1st fret and hold down the 12th and slide the feeler at the 6th. Most YouTube capo the 1st then hold the string at whatever fret is closest to the body then slide the feeler in between usually the 8th. So the tolerance is different. So technically they're both right. Depends on how you do it.

**Q: How to use use this gauge on Taylor Baby, which is a short neck. Same way at 6th fret?**
A: It should work on the 6th fret. You should be able to find some info on there website.

**Q: Does this work on electric Bass**
A: Yes, it will work on a bass guitar.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ MusicNomad Precision Truss Rod Neck Relief Gauge Tool (MN600)
*by S***. on June 6, 2025*

I was surprised at how small it was. HOWEVER, it works very well as it purports and the size is convenient for carrying in your case or gig bag. The Music Nomad video about how oily other gauges from tool sellers is not an exaggeration. This does the job, the white on black is very easy on the eyes, it's not oily, and IMO it's great for checking neck relief and making adjustments as needed. It looks to be durable and I'm am more than pleased with it, its use, and the measurement accuracy. Simple to use. They even give you a "pick capo" which is really just a pick that works well to hold down the strings at the first fret to free your hand to hold, touch at other (e.g. 6th or 12th fret) and make adjustments as needed while holding the guitar in playing position which is the proper way to check.
