90 Degree Fret End Bevel File with Diamond File Designed and Made By Chris Alsop in his workshops in Derbyshire, UK.

This is a diamond file bonded to a handle which allows it to be guided along the fretboard with the file cutting an accurate bevel on the fret ends.  The handle is constructed from European Beech Hardwood and the base, the surface which glides along the fretboard, is made of a very low friction, high grade engineering polymer.

These files last for many fretboards and  are equally long lasting on stainless frets and normal nickel silver frets.

Please note that as these handles are made from natural products there may be variation in the wood colour, some due to spalting which gives patterns in the wood.

Features

The tool provides an efficient and easy to use solution to getting the fret ends cleanly cut to a specific angle.   We have experimented with many designs for these and have come up with this solution which has the following main features: •  For filing the ends of the frets level with the ends of the fretboard the file is set at 90 degrees •  Very comfortable to hold file. •  Diamond File permanently bonded into handle. •  The file protrudes from the holder so you can see how the cut is progressing. •  Smooth base made of low friction polymer, with bevelled at the ends. This base makes it easy to pass over the fret tops without bumping or damage. •  The bevel file is a fine grit diamond file which leaves a good finish. All that is needed is a final light sanding, to remove any scratches or uncomfortable edges, and a polish •  Suitable for Stainless Steel frets

Fret Beveling in General
The main advantage of using a Bevel File is that a really consistent professional job is achieved where all the fret ends are at the same angle.  This file is to be used for filing the ends of the frets level with the ends of the fretboard the file. After filing the fret ends, you should then bevel the frets with an angled bevel file (between 10 degrees to 60 degrees). Please see our other bevel files for this process. This main point about bevelling is to make sure there are no sharp edges or uncomfortable fret ends which hamper playing. If a fret end is too  long then it disturbs the feel of the neck as the players moves around the fretboard; if the fret end angle is too shallow then the string can  easily start to slip off the end of the fret.  It is also surprising just how much of the fretboard space is used up by the bevels - a 45 degree bevel  will use about 1mm of the fret wire and so reduce a 43mm neck to 41mm playable width.  We sell many different angled bevel files please see our 'Fret Bevelling' Shop Category for the full range.
