Guys i posted this earlier and since then i have gotten 3 different answers on this. i dont want ebmm's secrets or anything like that but one by one i am having custom necks made to mach my evh and axis guitars. these necks are what i always wanted and have grown to and i am having someone replace all my necks to these specs so they will all feel the same but still have such and such's headstock and stuff. i have gotten answer's like there the 6150 dunlops or 6105's. i have also gotten that there closer to the stewart mac #141 frets. like i said i dont want the whole secret but i do want what is not gonna feel like another guitar when i switch necks. if anyone has the ability to measure there frets at least width that would help. only thing i have to go on right know is i know the ebmm frets are nothing like say a wolfgang fret. so any help would be apreciated and i think that goes to show how great ebmm is that i am willing to replace all my guitars necks, 10 in total with necks that are made to my ebmm specs. great job ebmm.

All I know is that the Petrucci guitar uses the same fretwire as the EBMM basses. It's heavier than all the other guitars that MM makes. I thought it was 6105 for the basses and the Petrucci, and that the other guitars used lighter wire.

I could be completely wrong, too. But I do know that the Petrucci wire = the bass wire and it's heavier than the fretwire used on the other EBMM guitars.

thanks guys i believe the 6105 and the stew mac 141 are very close so that helps. i think i will try and measure with my caliper before i decide but i hope its one of them .
