Setup Tools
A setup is a handful of measurements: relief, action at the 12th, intonation, pickup height. These are the tools that turn “feels off” into a number you can fix.
String Action Gauge
Precise Action Measurement
A string action gauge measures the distance between strings and frets with precision. This is crucial for setting up optimal playability and preventing fret buzz or high action that affects performance.
Measurement Points:
- 1st fret string height
- 12th fret string height
- Bridge saddle height
- Nut slot depth

Intonation Tools
In Tune Everywhere
If the 12th-fret note and the open string don't agree, chords up the neck go sour. Setting intonation takes fresh strings, saddle adjustment, and a tuner accurate enough to see a cent or two.
Essential Tools:
- Electronic tuners
- Bridge saddle adjustment tools
- String height measurement tools
- Intonation testers
