Our carbon fiber modulus (stiffness measure) is 3.5 times that of off-the-shelf structural CF tubing, and is specially made for us in small batches. Despite using more expensive tubing, the Kestrel is priced to be one of the more affordable US-made CF levers. We build the Kestrel to the length you specify, in our shop in Mesa, AZ. Actual weight may vary slightly, and custom wood handles are typically about an ounce heavier than the composite handles, depending on shape and size.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003ciframe width=\"460\" height=\"270\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/Ahm8mDLqUMs?si=rVHC2RvsdYWuHIwL\" title=\"YouTube video player\"\u003e\u003c\/iframe\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAluminum Head\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe Kestrel's 12.5 degree angle head is anodized aircraft aluminum.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eChoosing Lever Length\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThere is a \"sweet spot\" length that will give you the best results, and it may not the same for everyone. We believe 11\" will work well for most tuners, and is a good length if you aren't sure where to start. To get the most benefit from the Kestrel's design, we recommend not going longer than 12.5.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA longer lever makes it easier to move the tuning pin. This feels more comfortable, but some tuners mistake this comfort for improved performance. The ease of a longer lever actually comes at the cost of reduced accuracy, control, and feedback. A shorter lever will provide a stronger sense of control, and a better connection to what is happening to the tuning pin and wire movements, often resulting in faster tuning times and more confidence in unison stability, but this comes at the cost of comfort. The tuner might be more tired at the end of the day when using a shorter lever, as a result of having to apply more force with every movement, so going with too short a lever can be problematic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cem\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Supply88","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53347592077606,"sku":"Canarywood 10.5 Kestrel","price":569.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0113\/8170\/2756\/files\/cw02.jpg?v=1781553587","url":"https:\/\/supply88.com\/products\/kestrel-custom-canarywood-10-5","provider":"Supply88","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
