Fretwork A fret dressing is recommended when frets have become worn out in areas, and it's playability has suffered (ex. buzzing out in areas). Other times due to natural shifting of the wood, the frets become no longer uniformly level. A discerning player may choose to get his/her new guitar dressed because of the imperfections of a factory setup, and after the initial settling-in period, it will likely need it. When dressing the frets, all frets are seated and levelled to uniform height across the neck, re-shaped and polished. A refret is necessary when frets are worn out and need to be replaced. Frets are removed, the neck is checked for straightness, re-surfaced when necessary, new frets are pressed in, assured to be levelled to a uniform height, reshaped and polished. Finish work extra. Costs do not include restring & setup. ​
