Re: How did they do that???????

I think eventually I'm going to take it to an excellent local luthier and have a fret leveling and bone nut installed.

Who would you take it to? I'm still looking for a good luthier in this area.

I like my action set slightly high as i am such a large guy with big hands i really pound the strings hard! But to get lower action without buzz on my Fenders i got out a sanding block and flattened out the frets from 12-22... just a little bit... once shaped and polished the guitar plays great and you can take bends up extremely high.... That is why i like Warmoth's Compound Radius necks...

But i wonder if Charvel has one of those new lazer guided fret leveling machines i have been hearing about.. I heard there is only 3 machines in the USA.... wonder if Charvel is one of them....

You mean those "Plek" things? Nope, they don´t, ´s all still done by hand

There are no secrets to good workmanship, only time, effort and attention to detail
