Working on your guitar is fun, but buying tools to work on your guitar can be difficult. There are a ton of tools from fret files, to string action rulers, to radius gauges... but which tools do you really need and which tools should you buy first. I have done the hard work and put together a list of tools that you may want to buy to work on your guitars at home. These are the most cost efficient and practical tools to buy that actually work and are worth the investment.
