Hi all, noob here, I just got reunited with my 79 Sabre and it needs a re-fret. Can anyone tell me what gauge fret wire I need? (I am not doing the job myself). I can't lay my hands on a set of calipers at the moment and can't find the info on line anywhere. Thanks in advance for any advice,

You can use any gauge that you prefer. But if you
are concerned to stick with the original gauge, the
luthier should be able to order matching wire when
he looks at the existing frets. If I knew of a luthier
who could NOT do that, I wouldn't trust him with
this job in the first place :-(

I like medium jumbo 6150.
