Fret Dressing Class
Many have asked for more advanced classes, so we are pleased to now offer private Skype or FaceTime sessions with respect to frets.
LEARN THE FINE ART OF FRET DRESSING!
It's important to keep your frets smooth and round so that your guitar plays and sounds its best. Normal play slowly wears away the fret material and creates flat spots and divots. Routine inspection of your frets should be done while performing your set-ups and dressings should be done when problems exist. After you are comfortable with your guitar set-up procedures, fret dressings should be the next step in your quest for personally taking care of all aspects of guitar repair techniques. This class will teach you about your first line of defense against fret wear and fret deterioration and offer you the procedures and methods of executing a proper fret dressing course of action.
