In depth discussion and notes on all the variants, ie Maple fretboard, bound fretboards, different types of wood and processes..
Who is the course for?
The course is aimed for students who have either already done at least our Setup Course or better still our 3 Day Build course so there is an understanding of neck relief and ideally fret dressing.
Fret work is Lutherie! so with that comes more specialist tooling, costly tooling, so the course is aimed at techs who want to add more experience and skills to their setup.
