Black Plastic Binding
ABS plastic bindings are used by Gibson, Martin, Taylor, Fender and many other manufacturers. The material adheres well to wood and to itself.
Our ABS plastic bindings are 65" long — a single piece will reach completely around a guitar body. These bindings are manufactured with smooth edges, not rough-sawn from sheets, for closer size tolerances.
#5792 extra-tall .565" binding is the right size for Les Paul® and similar guitar tops.
Custom Binding Installation Tips
Example binding layout
A Laminate strips of .010" alternating black and white
B Combination .020" black and .040" white
C Use .020" white and .020" black, installed sideways as edge trim
Laminate bindings
You can sandwich strips together using our Binding Laminator and acetone. Measure carefully before you rout the channels, and almost any combination can be installed.
We recommend StewMac Bind-ALL Guitar Binding Glue for the best results when installing plastic binding, even on oily tonewoods. It has just the right amount of tackiness to keep the bindings in place while securing them to the body.
To hold the bindings in place as the glue dries, use Brown Binding Tape or Rubber Clamping Bands.
For a clean look, once the glue is dry trim the bindings flush to the surrounding wood with a Scraper Blade.
