Our Custom Shop is the place to be!
Our Fretwire is picked out, cut to size, and ready to install.
In this process it is very important to make sure that the Fretwire is seated properly, and glued into place.
Now all Frets are securely glued into place. And the train keeps a rollin all night long......Hehehehehe!
After snipping the newly installed Frets to the edge of the fingerboard, we install the side dot markers.
And there you go, all side dots are in place.
And the sharp edges are filed so that nobody cuts themselves when they are doing those lightning speed chord transitions. We call that Speed Metal around here!
Now that the Fretboard is equipped with 18% Nickel/Silver alloy Hard Metal, we file the surface flat.
Then we check our work with a precision straight edge to make sure everything is just right.
Now for the crowning file & some elbow grease so that we can get the fret surface back into shape.
And there you have it! All frets installed, surfaced, and polished the All AmericaN way!
