How to Replace Guitar Frets : Crown Frets on Guitar Fretboards

[BernietheShredder]

:O a FRETBOARD PROTECTOR!!! I wonder if that would have come in handy in that 'fret buzz' video where he scratches the fucking fretboard with sandpaper...retard

[Neoclassicalman]

too bad the camera guy sucks maybe we could actually see what he is doing and trying to show us ugh some people....

[gary97209]

WOW...at least he could have immobilized the fretboard from sliding around. This is a expert? WOW Good thing he's has a lot of fret to begin with.

really, really low frets make a wonderful guitar...guitar plays like butter.

Realllllllly low. Fingers don't feel sore pressing down next to them...they don't fell like road blocks....

Try a 52 les paul, and check out the frets...like heaven, if they haven't been replaced..

I like it. I have the multi recrown tool which lets me change the flies to the fret needed. Now personally, If I'm doing a fresh build, I'll install level and recrown the frets on the board before it's glued to the neck. That way i can be sure the fret board is level when the frets are leveled. After reinstall on the neck, I know if there's any problems, it's in the neck bow, nut string height,, or saddle height.

[TheMadMusicMan]

there are some good files to be found on eBay.I bought one for $25. Double sided, works for Medium and jumbo frets. Works great for my Strats and Teles.

@greenxgreenman

My favorite source is Stewmac.com. They have it all.

[sliceofpiemusic]

An excellent, no-nonsense video. Information delivered clearly. Very helpful.

[murrmac]

are you kidding ?

how helpful is it to see some dork working on a fretboard which has been removed from the guitar ?

[hahafender]

how do you know what size the frets are??? my guitar is a epiphone les paul standard

[luqway]

They will most probably be medium sized frets, almost all epiphones are.

[chiclepicklejuarez]

@hahafender almost all epiphones have medium frets but if you want to be really shure go to gibson.com and click to the linck of your guitar and  then all especification will pop out
