I'm in need of some new frets in my Axis and I'm considering stainless frets

What are the factory size frets so I can order some?? I want to keep that same 'feel'

Is there any pros/cons to stainless over nickel??


thanks!

I have just had my sunburst Axis refretted with Stewmac 149. Its a little taller than the stock wire, but more of less the same width. Feels great! From what I understand, the stainless steel wire makes your guitar sound very bright.

Lord,

I don't think the public is privy to that information.

I do know that EB will re-fret your "sent in" MM guitar. Not sure though if you have an option to choose fret material or not.

I suggest you call CS for these questions.:):)

Regarding stainless vs nickel; less warm, lasts forever, and sizes limited!
