Review: When "New & Improved" actually is an improvement - This is my 3rd purchase of the Med/Med nickel-silver fret wire. I was asked to do a fret job on a 1980's era Martin acoustic. I figured I'd go with the recommended fret wire from StewMac. More expensive, but hell, it's an old Martin, let's go first class. Turns out the last fret job was done a little too aggressively and the fret slots were a bit too wide now. I could have made it work with enough super glue, but that defeats the purpose of using the more expensive wire. I had a package of the C. B. Gitty wire I was saving for one of my guitars & in the interest of time decided to use what I had in stock. Even having to deal with a bound neck they worded perfectly. The height, width & tang were spot on. The customer was really happy with the job & how fast I got the guitar back to him. Here comes the "New & Improved" part. I ordered another pack for whenever I get around to refretting my gigging guitar. They now come with a light radius! The radius is just the right amount to be considered "universal". Not a BIG time saver, but a time saver none the less. It actually is an improvement. Great product, fast delivery, easy to work with & a great price.
Review: Great Item! - These work great for building a cigar box guitar!.. I’ve bought and used a lot of these, and they are easy to install and looks great!.. I would recommend these to anyone!
