DON'T FRET NO FRETWIRE NO SLOTS NO PROBLEM EASY FRETS

feel free to ask any questions .
this is a simple way to do frets .. they really sound great and need effortless pressure to make the note .

no depth issues , slot cutting , fret wire , height issues , sanding , leveling etc .

and minimal filing

i highly recomend trying it .

the bobby pins / roller pins i got seem longer and maybe a bit wider than i remember the older ones being .

but i'm sure the old style would work too

Hmmm, almost missed this as I was out riding the fence line on my pigmy pony!

Its weird, so I like it. But I also agree with those who have tried to make the point that "regular" fretting need not be feared, it is not that difficult to master, nor necessarily expensive as many creative individuals here have proven.

Use the method that suits you and yes, please share as you learn! Good tip Pick!

See what you started, pick? From bobby pins to tweezers to Montana to bovine perspiration. Nowhere else but CBN.

For those of you not in-the-know ( and apologies for all the in-jokes), there appear to be more than a number of Frank Zappa Freaks hereabouts, who can quote from some of his better-known lyrics. One wonders what FZ would have made of a CBG...
