StewMac Guitar Buffer: a compact powerhouse! "Other buffers don't give you enough room to move the instrument, and they run too fast—burning off the finish you're trying to polish. StewMac's guitar builders and tool designers talked about what we wanted in a buffer, and what we want to avoid. No other company has designed a buffing arbor system so specifically for luthiers' needs." Jay Hostetler Product Development Stewart MacDonald |
