Levelling and Crowning

Fret levelling and crowning to remove buzz and restore playability.

Uneven frets cause buzzing, dead notes and high action that no amount of adjusting will cure. I level the frets as a set, re-crown each one back to its correct shape, then polish and dress the ends so the neck plays cleanly in every position. The result is a lower, faster action with an even tone right up the neck.

What's involved

  • Fingerboard protected and frets checked for wear
  • Frets levelled as a set
  • Each fret re-crowned to its correct profile
  • Fret ends dressed and polished
  • Fingerboard cleaned and conditioned
  • Action, relief and intonation re-set afterwards
