Title:
NK Forster Guitars Luthier Fretting
Description:
Cutting frets to length, undercutting the tang, hammering in, sealing the ends of the slots with shellac. There have been many new ways of fretting invented, but I don't see what's wrong with the traditional method - newer ways seem overly complicated. Perhaps they suit people who are less confident about their handskills. By the fretting stage the most important and difficult part has been done - preparing the fingerboard so it has the correct radius and relief when under string tension - now this is an area where engineering methods are appropriate. http://www.myspace.com/nkforsterguitars
