Back by popular demand! Our binding jig is another great product based on designs used by luthiers Jean Larrivee, Sergei de Jonge and Mark Kett. It offers a number of features not available on any other commercial binding jigs. This jig differs from others on the market; it remains stationary while the guitar body gets rotated over the jig. It consists of a base on which to attach a router, and a series of aluminum sliders. Advantages to our binding jig: -The slot is cut square to the sides since the jig references off the side of the guitar -No need to change bearings or cutters; cutting depth and width can be adjusted in a matter of seconds using the depth adjustment on the router and by changing the size of the slider -Repeatable cutting depths are quickly achieved with this setup -Maximum binding/purfling width of .235", wider than other popular bit bearing kits on the market -Easily adjust cutting width in .005" increments with fiber tape for precision channels -No bearing marks left in the side of the guitar -Compact design for easy storage Includes everything needed to cut binding channels, except the router. This jig is designed for use on acoustic guitars. It requires a minimum body depth of 3". Our jig is designed to work with a wide variety of mid/full-sized fixed base routers. It will not work with some laminate trimmers. Please contact us if you have questions about routers for this jig. Custom low-profile binding jig (for archtop guitars) available by special order.
