From SteelMaster:
Wade Black, owner and creator, of 3Bender has designed a new string bender that can be mounted to a JM Offset style guitar vibrato without the need for drilling any new mounting holes, called The Steelmaster™. The idea came from a conversation with Black Bobbin owner Shelby Pollard, a Chicago based industry expert on JM guitars. Pollard wanted a more precise way to bend strings behind the bridge and he imagined using the bender in combination with the JM style vibrato to provide a lap steel or pedal steel type vibrato sound. 3Bender was already bending 3 notes on a unique patented design and Black had been ruminating a similar idea but the suggestion of using a JM completed the vision and The Steelmaster™ was created. The Steelmaster™ can be used on any string to add a smooth and in tune glissando to the music. The bender levers can also be stacked to move chord voicings by bending notes a half or full tone. See it, hear it and get your Steelmaster™ at Fretboard Summit.
Specs:
- Made in partnership with 3Bender
- Mountable palm bender
- Fits on USA JM plates, and Mastery OMV vibrato systems
- Can accommodate multiple levers
- Variable lever lengths included

I love the offset palm bender.
So easy to install and dial in.
It works great.
Now it’s all on me.
Still working on technique and positioning.
But it’s really cool.
Excellent quality, craftsmanship, and easy to install. The Steel Master really opens up new a whole new world of play style and thinking about your Jazzmaster!
A great option to expand the sonic possibilities of a Jazzmaster or Jag! Since I’ve gotten the hang of the mechanism, I’ve been using it on everything!
Great concept and killer execution!
