  • I would never let this guy touch my guitar..this is embarrassing to watch.

  • Arent you supposed to mark the tops of the frets with a sharpy then using a flat file file ALL the frets at the same time.

    This not correct & should not be taken seriously.That fb will not be very good when its finished.

    Its actaully scary to watch.Listen to the file grinding.His filing the frets unevenly & doesnt seem to be very careful at all.

  • i had just made a guitar for school and this seems just fine for me

  • this actually can be done with a file, but its a technique of highly skilled luthier masters. check
