Well, there was always going to be something I overlooked here...can't believe y'all didn't stop me 😉Basically, a pretty huge oversight was that I failed to take into consideration the fretboard radius (7.25) vs the bridge radius (12!!!) hahahaha... So, I had two options, remove some frets and sand in a compound radius, as it wasn't too big a deal between 1st and 12th, which would be the responsible thing to do. OR - do the thing that I don't recommend you out there ever do, and sand that compound radius right onto the frets. Why don't I recommend it? Well, it's fine if it's your guitar, like this is mine, and thankfully these brand new frets were tall enough to take it, but it's just, it's pretty lazy, and not something a customer should ever expect. You also run a huge risk of taking off so much fret, that the whole thing becomes a bigger mess than it already was, so - don't do it. In this instance though, I got lucky and it all worked out, and feels pretty darn okay. I got, very lucky. 🍀#custommistakes #crisisaverted #telecaster #shortscale #guitar #guitartech #ineedanadult #repair #rectify #cursedobjects #brisbane #beexcellenttoeachother
