EZ GUITAR TOP GLUE UP FROM MAXIMUM GUITAR WORKS! (The top in pictures NOT included)
Gluing up tops, especially thin boards has been a struggle ever since figured tops have been used in guitar making. Let’s face it, thinner boards mean more tops out of the cool billets of wood we buy...but they are a real struggle. We’ve tried the same jigs and techniques as everyone else, and have been unhappy with them too. Steve, the Mad Scientist, in his unrelenting pursuit of excellence, knew there had to be a better way and it had to be:
- Usable capacity 16.5” wide x 25” tall
- Easy use
- Easy to clean
- Easy to store
- Easy to re-deploy
- The results had to be repeatable and excellent every time
Maximum Guitar Works is proud to present the better way: MGW EZ Guitar Top Glue Up Jig! With our center hold down bar & 6 movable, purpose built, cams that easily adjust, you can get a top glued up, off the bench and out of the way in just a few minutes. If you have an odd shaped book match or live edge, no problem, our cams can be moved to easily accommodate those irregularities. Watch the video below and see for yourself how EZ it really is to glue up tops with the MGW GTGUJ!
Refined Upgrades In the Final Production Version!
