I glued my top down this morning at 70 degrees and this glue performed admirably. It took me a 3 or 4 minutes to get the glue down and spread it around and it had not yet begun to gel. By the time I got it all clamped down the squeeze out was just starting to skin over. I've already seen that it dries just about invisible.

I think so, but you might want to wait until I finish this guitar and string it up so we can see if the string tension pulls it apart!
I think it quite comparable to the old LMI white instrument makers glue.
