Straight edge
Excellent quality
-
Decent
Seems like it is a decent straight edge, a bit thin and there is a lateral curve which hopefully was already in the steel before the critical edges were ground.

Straight as an arrow and a great price!
For standard generic products like this, I always come to PLS as their prices seem about 20-30% lower across the board than stewmac or allparts. This is a high quality tool and does exactly what it’s supposed to. Don’t hesitate to buy PLS’s products, you won’t be disappointed!

A Must Have Tool
Having a tried and true straight edge at your fingertips is paramount to any type of guitar repair or luthier work. After working with make shift straight edges for a while, I broke down and treated myself to a proper tool, this Philadelphia Luthier straight edge. I couldn't be happier with my purchase. Shipping was super fast. Great quality product, priced fairly. I'm a customer for life.

So easy to measure neck relief now!
This makes measuring neck relief a breeze when combined with the Guitar Luthier Feeler Gauge set of 20. No more capo on the first fret and holding a string down on the neck where it meets the body and then trying to measure all at the same time. The main issue I found with this method is that the string was not rigid enough and it was too easy to bend/lift the string with the feeler gauge. There is no lifting of this straight edge! Works great on 24.75" and 25.5" scale guitar necks.
