Description: The StewMac Acoustic Guitar Side Bending Machine is a professional tool that makes bending guitar sides more consistent, predictable, and beginner-friendly. Developed with input from luthier Charles Fox, this redesigned bender eliminates the challenges of traditional bending methods like hot pipe bending, offering smooth, repeatable results every time. Consistent Results: Manual bending on a hot pipe can lead to uneven curves, cracks, and damage, especially with highly figured woods. This machine guarantees smooth bends with no spring back, enhancing build quality and saving time. Open-Sided Design: Unlike other benders, StewMac’s machine features an open-sided design, making it easy to load and align sides without clumsy maneuvering. The adjustable waist clamp instantly conforms to any shape, applying perfect pressure without needing additional jigs. Robust and Versatile Construction: Crafted from extruded aluminum and 13-ply Baltic Birch, the bender is built to handle high heat and pressure. Its industrial ACME screw press ensures zero flex, making it durable enough for professional use. Adaptable to Any Body Shape: The bender can be used with 8 interchangeable bending forms, including dreadnought, OM, 000, and J-45, as well as cutaway versions. Custom forms can also be used, allowing for endless guitar shapes without any modifications. Complete Bending System: When paired with StewMac’s temperature controller, heating blanket, and bending straps, the system offers ultimate control over the bending process. It’s a comprehensive tool designed to be the heart of your workshop, backed by StewMac’s Lifetime Promise. Dimensions: 27" x 12" (685.8mm x 304.8mm), Max height: 33" (838.2mm). This system sets a new standard in guitar side bending, perfect for luthiers seeking quality, consistency, and ease of use.
