OK its me and my silly Q's again...if I open up and spill some beans you guys will think I'm a real greener...well here goes...
I always wondered what Fret Wear was, especially when it came to used guitars...and for the longest time I thought the fret was the actual fret board area between the frets, D'oh...this of course led to confusion especially when I read some reports over at the action thread... people were talking about 1/16, how the heck do you get 1/16 when the fret separators (thats what I called them) were at least 1/16...needless to say I was discouraged when I couldn't get my SUB1 down to 1/16 action LOL! BUZZ CITY!
Anyhoo back to my question...Fret Wear, now I'm understanding atleast what gets worn, but how, why and what do I need to be aware of...also is it a problem that is solvable...thanks...please no jokes...alright but keep them clean!
