Second one in progress

My second guitar on its way. With this I used 2 neck pieces inside the box to get solid body and enough room for pickups. I am planning to make my first own single coil pickups.Have you used any glue with frets or have you just hammered them in?

    I place a short board over the fret and then hammer the board to seat the fret.

    Hammer.

    Ok, will just hammer it in then. I will use a piece of wood to protect the frets, thanks for tips.

    Keen to see the finished instrument. Same as David, I position fret wire and tap in with luthier fretting hammer.

    Looking good.

    Simply tap the fret wire in place with a hammer, preferably a dead blow hammer, or use an offcut of wood to protect the frets.
