The tuned strings on your 4003 make a perfect straight edge.LONNIE4003 wrote:i want to make a straight edge for checking the neck.

Totally true, but not so good for detecting/measuring back-bow....rickenbrother wrote:The tuned strings on your 4003 make a perfect straight edge.LONNIE4003 wrote:i want to make a straight edge for checking the neck.

They still make a good straight edge, just a little more floppy (D-tuned)BAD RONBO, KiLLeR DWaRfS wrote:rickenbrother wrote:The tuned strings on your 4003 make a perfect straight edge.LONNIE4003 wrote:i want to make a straight edge for checking the neck.

You can tell if you have a backbow using your strings as a straightedge. You can even tell if you have a high fret.
