Strate Mate...Was Remedial String Leveling

[Andrew and Rebeca Anderson]

Joe,
The augmentation is if the base and the tip are not parallel.  Ie., 
to level the tip to the key-bed.  It is recommended in their 
literature.  Mine seems pretty good.  Although when I adjust the 
height up it isn't parallel anymore, durned threads.  Course when you 
want the height up that is less of an issue.
