Fret Pullers |
||||||
|
This is a pair of fret pullers - we modify a standard pair of pliers by hand grinding and reshaping the ends - this makes
them really grip the frets and allow the user to control how they pull the fret out. Usually its best to ease
it out little by little to avoid damaging the wood of the fretboard.

THESE FRET PULLERS ARE 110mm long - the same as most small pliers and end cutters. They are suitable for gripping in one hand. Our tests show that jaws (about 10mm across) allow a high pressure to be applied to the fret curved surface- and this means a very good grip is achieved allowing a controlled withdrawal of the fret. Fret pulling is a delicate operation and requires small, light and accurate tools which grip well. The whole process is reliable and controllable using this tool compared to using ordinary unmodified pliers - see the picture comparing the way in which the grip is achieved. Please note - these are NOT CUTTERS, they are for pulling frets out. Usually more leverage is required to cut a fret and, whilst these will cut some types of frets, they get undue wear on the jaws and be strained. Please see our eBAy shop for our fret cutters. FREE: A comprehensive printed guide fret replacement is included. |
