StewMac Professional Fret & Fingerboard Leveling Files Set of 3 - Guitar Repair Tools for Luthiers & Musicians - Perfect for DIY Guitar Maintenance & Setup

Product Description

These custom-made files give you a handle on your fret work!These files work quickly to level frets or fingerboards, leaving a smooth finish. Each file is 1" wide with a comfortable hardwood handle. The 6" length is for general use, and the 3" length is for spot leveling.The fret leveling files have single-cut teeth with a steeper angle to eliminate "chatter." They cut faster and smoother than most fret leveling files we've used, they work quickly, and they're great for dressing and beveling fret ends. The fingerboard leveler is a double-cut file for ebony, rosewood and pearl inlays. Despite its rough appearance, it leaves a smooth finish.Works on stainless frets, too!These tools are suitable for use on stainless-steel fretwire. Modern stainless-steel fretwire is known to be harder than the traditional nickel-silver blends, but our own shop experience indicates the wire does not cause premature wear of files or sandpapers.
