Level all your frets with fewer strokes. The Music Nomad Leveling L-Beam 17.6″ Fret Leveler (MN811) is a heavy aluminium leveling beam for acoustic and electric guitars. At 17.6″ it is longer than the common 16″ beams, so it covers all the frets and gives accurate results with fewer strokes. It also levels unfretted fingerboards.
