it's got nothing to do with the number of strings. For example, a 3 piece neck. Laminate the pieces face to face (wide face) then flip it on it's side and resaw perpendicular to the glue lines. You get many necks from one glue up. The pic I posted illustrate how the clamps put pressure all through the width of the wide faces, something that cannot be done with those clamps you posted.

Not tall enough for my design. I laminate blocks and boards as wide as 6" so those wouldn't be as effective.

You would need 6-8 of those and that would cost about double what mine did not to mention things like that are extremely difficult to find (I've only seen one offering from Grizzly Industrial). Apart from that you'd have to dedicate a fair amount of shop space to such a set up for something that is not used everyday. Weight is another problem.
