    Very nicely done fret job Tanya, it turned out beautiful and intonated nicely without pulling out hair and bridge adjustments. It's nice when people take care of their old guitars.

    • @TanyaShpachuk

    Tanya, it's Leo Fender's birthday today, born 10th August 1909 so If he was still with us he would be 115 and too old to be working on guitars but would be loving the way you do. He was a great believer in making guitars (and amps) serviceable.

    Great job. I bought a Warmoth neck with stainless jumbo frets. I didn't have to level thank God. I got the neck straight and checked and it was perfect . I made the nut exactly like you did, but I used the strings and should have used the tool like you. It took forever, but it is perfect. I love that neck. The action is perfect and the same distance from the bottom of the strings to the top of the frets all the way up and down the neck. Then I tuned and set the intonation which was really close and I was off to the races. It's a great strat. Installing three EMG SA pickups this coming week. Can't wait to hear it..
    Best regards.

In our country a fretjob is about €350 and I've 4 guitars that need a refret so I decided to buy the tools and do it myself. I'll start of with a Epiphone Dot because that's the cheapest. I' ve one question about the glue. Which one do you use for rosewood fingerboards? Keep up restoring/refretting these wonderful guitars. You're a master! My compliments.
