    Error!!!! Always all frets in one line!! Never individually!! This is crap, not serious work. Then I have to correct just such bungling. 🤦‍♂️

    This was great, but as a tool and die maker/ mold maker always clean between grits of steel wool or sand paper as to not drag heavy grit back into the lighter grit.

    Excellent video! Exactly the way I was taught by a master luthier. The only nugget I might add is to tape off your pick-ups before leveling. The metal shavings have a way of finding the magnets. Another way to cut down on the fine metal particles is to use scotch-brite pads instead of steel wool. Again, awesome video. Thanks for the detailed information.

    This was the best video on this that I have been able to find, and I've been through a lot. Great attention to detail. I would also recommend that people be sure to apply a good bit of painters tape and completely cover your pickups beforehand or you'll have a fun long time trying to get the metal shavings and steel wool off of those magnets :)
