Members Citizen_Insane Posted June 12, 2010 Members Share Posted June 12, 2010 Hey, at least the guys that get this stuff won't have to worry about wearing their frets down You could get a lot of fretjobs and never have to worry about replacing the wire!

Members jumpwin Posted June 13, 2010 Members Share Posted June 13, 2010 Do frets that big have the same effect as a scalloped fretboard? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members atrox Posted June 13, 2010 Author Members Share Posted June 13, 2010 Do frets that big have the same effect as a scalloped fretboard? yeah, I'm assuming so. they would also require a new nut for sure Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members bigspan Posted June 13, 2010 Members Share Posted June 13, 2010 I've never played a scalloped fretboard, but I've always wanted to try one - so, int that regard, they intrigue me. But I think I'll have to wait a while. But count me as one of those who'll be interested in hearing your thought on playing a finished job!

Members jelloman Posted June 13, 2010 Members Share Posted June 13, 2010 you may have to shift to regular jumbo wire for the upper frets... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members CoqBelliqueux Posted June 13, 2010 Members Share Posted June 13, 2010 you may have to shift to regular jumbo wire for the upper frets...Or skip some frets like on the Sky guitar. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members atrox Posted June 13, 2010 Author Members Share Posted June 13, 2010 you may have to shift to regular jumbo wire for the upper frets... nope. actually, i just checked and there is plenty of room between frets even at the 21st and 22nd. in fact, you can see most of the fretboard dot Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members atrox Posted June 13, 2010 Author Members Share Posted June 13, 2010 I was going to do this whole scrap neck here just to see it, but seeing how hard it is to cut, I'm gonna wait till my client brings his guitar in. There will be lots of picts and a review of course Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
