This professional-grade kit contains the all the equipment needed to do fret dresses at a special bundled price.
It is available with either 150-grit, 300-grit or both Offset Diamond Fret Files. You can use only one of the Offset Fret Files and get an excellent result, however having the choice of the Coarse and Fine makes dressing frets quicker and easier. (see below for more detail)
The quality diamond-coated files will last for dozens of guitars. Diamond coated files cut quicker and give a smoother cut than standard files.
The Fret End Dressing file is used to smooth the sharp corners of each fret and the Fingerboard Guards are used to protect the fingerboard while sanding and polishing the frets.
The kit is suitable for dressing frets of all sizes and will work on standard Nickel, EVO and Stainless Steel fretwire.
Coarse vs Fine Offset Fret Files -The Coarse (150 grit) file is best for rapid recrowining, especially when a lot of levelling was needed and they are very flat. Fine tuning and scratch removal can be done with sandpaper or a 300 grit file (see below). The Fine (300 grit) gives a smoother result, requiring less scratch removal, but it takes longer to crown the frets than the Coarse does.
