MusicNomad GRIP Premium Fretboard Guards (MN225)

These work great when you dressing or just Polishing frets. Saves you having to tape the fret board for a quick polish. I would purchase again, but shouldn't need to.

Good for working on frets without scratching the fret board. They work well and worth the price.

One of the most indispensable tools you’ll need if you do any of your own setups, maintainable, or repairs, are fret guards. Several different kinds out there, and these have what most others don’t, which is a handle to hold them in place. They work VERY well. A word of warning though. These fit very precisely over the fret wire that most modern guitars will have. Among the three included widths/sizes. They’re a little too long however than most all fretboards will be. Meaning when you lay a guard over a fret, with the neck laying on your bench running from your left to right, and the frets vertical on front of you… there is some of the guard’s slots that aren’t filled with the fret. Why is this important? And why is it important to be THIS specific? With the guard fitted over the fret, if you were to take a fret rubber or 0000 steel wool to polish your frets, you’ll be rubbing across the fret & up and down in your field of view. Unless you hold the fret guard down with STRONG pressure… the edges of the thin metal the guard is made out of, can dig or cut into your fretboard. Leaving you a nasty surprise when you lift the fret guard away. It’s a good idea to tape the guard down in place so that it can’t slide up and down along the frets, to insure that doesn’t muck up your fretboard. If it happens it IS fixable, but it will take some serious work and skill.

Nice set. Works well.

They're great for guitars and 4-string basses! But I bought them for wider 5- and 6-string basses—their frets are much wider!

I purchased this 3-piece set because I have multiple guitars with various fret sizes. When I've cleaned my guitars in the past, I used the basic metal fret guards with blue painter's tape from Home Depot. While that might work for many guitarists and luthiers alike, I found that the guards kept slipping. It was hard to hold with one hand and scrub the fret wires with steel wool without it inevitably falling off. I also scratched my fingers a few times, and that was unpleasant (an understatement)... My frustration grew until I discovered this product. They are reasonably priced and so simple to use. At first, I had to figure out which angle to use and best optimum positioning. It was much easier to scrub the frets with the steel wool while holding the blue handle (the point of this product). I had to use the aforementioned blue tape to avoid scratching the adjacent frets on the guitar neck. It worked like a champ. Therefore, I gave the highest 5-star rating for a well-designed product. Best wishes, Evan J.

Worked very well protecting the fretboard while polishing the frets with 0000 steel wool. There are three sizes for the width of various frets. Be sure to select the guard that fits snuggly over your frets. [Tip: Place a strong magnet in a ziplock bag and then gently sweep over the fretboard and surrounding area to easily capture steel wool dust/fragments from the cleaning process. Then empty over a trash can. Works very well to avoid any mess from the steel wool.]

You cant go wrong with this company and there products i really like and use there products and will keep buying more stuff they make price wise and quality at its finest dont be afraid to purchase their products thats all I need to say thanks.

C'est bien mais je trouve le métal bien trop fin donc si on appui trop l'autre extrémité se relève et ne sert plus à rien donc il faut y aller doucement. Je ne trouve pas le prix justifié en règle général pour tous les produits de cette marque bien trop chère (même si c'est pas mal)

Qualidade além do esperado. Fiquei surpreso com o produto.

ベースのフレットのサビをとるために購入。 金属磨きを使用する際に指板を傷つけないようにするための器具で、 いくつかスリットの太さが異なる器具が入っているので、合わないということはないと思います。 マスキングテープなどでも代用可能なので、あったら便利、くらいに考えておくとよいです。
