- We're actually pretty lucky we have these tools freely available. Thanks to mass retailers they're out there by the scads. Still, let's say you do get a set, how do you actually use them? FYI.

I watched the whole video and never learned what the title promised - namely, how to use a radius gauge. You thoroughly explained how to figure out *which* gauge to use, and then you stopped!
Thanks for pointing that out! The video is supposed to be in two parts and the title was not specific enough, I've since updated it. Second part should be available shortly.
Just received my set today and couldnt really see just by sight, so good tip with the light test. 🙂 thanks from Germany
You're welcome!
That is a beautiful instrument. I really like the classiness.
Awesome, thank you!
Welcome!
Why do so many people have varying ways to set up the saddles. Is this the proper way I’m new to fender saddles wanting to set up my Strat. Any input would be appreciated.
The different methods should lead to the same result: a setup that works for both the guitar and player.
With any guitar that has height adjustable saddles, start with setting the height of the outer strings, then use the proper radius gauge to set the remaining string heights.

@@guitar-niche Thank you very much!
@@totc6196 You're welcome!
So what are they used for?
By confirming the neck radius, you can match the string radius at the bridge.
