Description: Fret an entire bolt-on neck, or most of an acoustic neck, FAST! "My favorite fretting tool." — Dan Erlewine The original handheld fret press! Jaws was invented by our own Dan Erlewine, a master teacher of fretting techniques. It gives you the finest control as you press a fret into the slot—you actually feel it seating! You get the precision of an arbor press with the mobility of a hand tool. NEW! Quick-change neck cauls! You get four padded neck support cauls, to cradle any neck: Standard for guitar and bass Wide for classical guitar Narrow for ukulele, mandolin and banjo Flat for bolt-on neck heels A quick-release pin lets you swap neck cauls in an instant. The neck cauls slide on a brass bar, for centering the neck under the fret caul or moving off-center to press fret ends. Features a self-leveling fret caul. The self-adjusting fret caul is designed to accept our 2-1/2"-wide grooved brass caul inserts (not included), but you can also fit it with the radius brass inserts of your choice from your own shop. Lifetime guarantee — We manufacture Jaws here in Ohio, modifying the strongest clamping plier of all: the rugged FACOM/PROTO tool. Jaws is the finest tool available for installing frets, and is backed by StewMac's 100% Guarantee. Why press frets? Pressing the frets can save time and produce more consistent results. That's why it's the method that's widely used in guitar production. Pressed-in frets are less likely to have loose ends and uneven heights, because there's none of the recoil produced by hammer blows.
