All brass and woodwind players can improve the sound characteristics of their instruments thanks to the Anniversary line being available in five different sizes.

The Mini-Multi is the newest guitar and bass multi-tool from GrooveTech Tools. Based on the premise that some players don’t adjust truss rods using a multi-tool, GrooveTech concentrated on action, tremolo systems, intonation, pickup height and most other adjustments on guitars and basses. The Mini-Multi consolidates 14 tools into a fold-up unit that’s less than 3 inches long. Included are eight hex wrenches, four screwdrivers and a precision ruler. And, for those important moments, a bottle opener is provided.
