  • I just burned the frets  on the neck of my canjolele, haven't played it yet. Looks cool though.

  • skewers, windshield wiper inserts, square toothpicks, fishing line, staples, saw lines, you name it. Skewers with a few coats of super glue or regular frets are my favorites.

  • Finish nails, then real fretswire.
  • I used finish nails on my boat paddle bass. Used the dremel cut off wheel to cut them & the same wheel as a grinder to smoothe the cut edge. shallow groove with a round file then epoxied in.
