You are missing the point. I am talking about correcting where a-bouts the relief occurs under string pull. If a neck flexes too high up no amount of levelling it in your jig is going to change that because the jig doesn't replicate the effect of string pull with any accuracy.Now I’m really confused. When I think of a fretting jig, I think of something to help me cut clean fret slots.
The tensioning jig we use pushes up on the end of the headstock and pulls down just behind the nut. Once it’s set, and backing rods are placed under the neck, it produces a neck with smooth, predictable relief every time.
