ok, so its a mysterious luthier tool......
It is principally a clamp, which means it has to hold something in place...heavy duty bolts suggest it is bolted onto a desk or wall to give added strength and support weight of either the neck or body.
So, thinking orderly.....
Paint the guitar.....clamp would cover bare wood that needed to be painted so its not that despite the Dingotone bottles in two frames.
Holding the neck in place while it glues or is bolted....told that this is not the case and body probably wouldn't fit. so discounted.
Could certainly be used to keep the guitar level when routing bindings......???? What sez you DB?
Could also be used to hold the headstock in place at the nut when drilling tuner holes into the headstock, but this would rip the wood when the drill exited underneath. So can't be this....
Not enough clamps involved to be used to glue a veneer on the headstock....but the extra clamps could be added later.
Could be used a started clamp for clamping the fretboard to the neck....I always need an extra hand to do this but again more clamps needed which don't appear in picture.
If the jig was rotated and attached to the edge of a table, a bone nut would fit perfectly in those jaws to be shaped, dressed and set to receive stings.......BINGO!!!!!!!!!! (Bone nut lying quietly and inconspicuously besides the two bottles of Dingotone.........
