Fret Dress (Price includes Setup)
A fret dress is the process of removing strings and straightening the neck. Once the neck is straight we level the frets with a perfectly machined leveling bar while removing only a minimal amount of material until all the frets are perfectly level. After we level the frets they are crowned to a center line (the intonation line for each fret). Then your frets are polished up to a mirror finish. Once we have done this your guitar can then be setup with a straight neck and your guitar will play like a dream! We recommend this for any new guitar since they don't do it in the factory, and for guitars that are regularly played.
