MusicNomad Releases 6-Piece Precision Setup Gauge Set

The kit includes a truss rod gauge, pick capo, string action gauge, two radius gauges, & nut height gauge.

Sonoma, CA (October 26, 2020) -- Not only is it fun, but a properly setup guitar takes your playing & sound to a whole new level. Music Nomadā€™s 6 pc. Precision Setup Gauge Set demystfies the setup process by developing innovative, high quality gauges combined with step-by-step general guidelines anybody can follow to help setup their guitar or bass.

ā€œWe asked 500 guitar and bass players, and 50% said they canā€™t or donā€™t setup their guitars, but 97% wanted to learn if it was simplified,ā€ says Rand Rognlien, CEO of Music Nomad. ā€œ40% of them owned 10 or more guitars, so we saw a real need to help our guitar community," says Rognlien

After several years of research & development and in collaboration with Master Guitar Tech Geoff Luttrell & other top repair techs, Music Nomad has developed the KEEP IT SIMPLE, SETUP (KISS)TM. With the 6 pc. Setup Gauge Set you can check the vital areas of your instrument & use their tools (sold separately) to perform your own setup.

Whether you have an electric, acoustic, classical, or bass, they give you the exact spec you need by instrument type, including instructions printed right on the product taking the guesswork out of each task. The 6 pc. Set includes a: truss rod gauge, pick capo, string action gauge, two radius gauges, & nut height gauge. They even include a 24 page instructional booklet & a nice carrying case. They are launching the Music Nomad Setup Hub on their website where you can watch how-to setup videos by task or guitar brand, take free online zoom classes, and download the instructional booklet. ā€œA ton of thought went into every detail of the product design and setup process to help the guitarist," adds Rognlien. Thatā€™s Music Nomad quality ā€“ raising the bar in equipment care.
