Oops, sent this earlier and it must have gotten caught in the filters. I've resized the picture. I've used a tape measure like this for years (got it from John Ford!). You can read the measurement in the little window. It includes a metric scale. I use it to measure string heights and then I use it to set up my regulating jig. It appears in the October 2010 Journal in TT&T.

Hello, 


Would anyone be able to recommend a good tool for measuring the string heights in mm?-Is there any digital ones nowadays?... 
My gauge is the only thing i use that is not metric, and i find it very confusing! 


Thanks in advance, 


Lewis.
