Scallop Your Guitar (Standard Scallop, Frets 14-21)

Step 5 Continuing the Process..

Some tips when removing the wood.
As explained before, you will need multiple passes with the file when working on wider frets.

I filed a general channel in the center of the fret to start off. Then I filed channels on each side.

man, you mangled those frets.... I did this, but I used a Drill press with a sanding drum, and it turned out wonderfully

You can eventually buff and use uber fine gritted sand paper and get the frets looking nicer but this 'mod' is for performance

But you can see clearly on the picture that you destroyed your frets !

Things like this may cause string breakage, if the frets aren't smooth enough

that is not exactly PRETTY!

its not supposed to be pretty, it supposed to make playing a guitar's neck a bit more versatile.
