Spend less time filing fret ends!
This is the best tool for trimming the ends off fretwire.
A Stewart-MacDonald exclusive, our custom-made steel cutter has improved features you won't find on hardware store nippers.
The jaws are specially hardened for fret work, and they're profiled and flush-ground to cut the wire close to the fretboard. The result is a cleaner cut without pulling the wire, so you'll need to do less filing. Longer rubber-coated handles allow better access to the frets over a guitar body.
1" (25.4mm) jaw width, 8" (203.20mm) length.
Works on stainless frets, too!
The StewMac Fret Cutter is suitable for use on stainless-steel fretwire.
Modern stainless-steel fretwire is known to be harder than the traditional nickel-silver blends, but our own shop experience indicates the wire does not cause premature wear of files or sandpapers.
