Thank you.
Just subbed to ur channel, I watched a video about which side is correct on the guitar capacitors. Which nobody seemed to know.
But you did. I just wanted to thank you bro, for the advice.
On this topic, right on.

How ever long that May last.

This glue is not available in my country
1:33 can't you buy a knockoff fret rocket and rectify all the faces and make it work flawlessly?
What are the options for a fret that doesn't seem to want to go down all the way? On my old Takamine electric acoustic there's still a slight gap on a couple fret ends, even if I firmly push on it individually. It almost feels like the fret slot isn't deep enough. I carefully applied some heat with a soldering iron to see if there was trapped glue or something and it seemed to help but it still stops slightly above the board. Any thoughts?
I love your method of using the fret rocker to ensure it's level with the opposing frets btw.
You might just need to do a level crown and polish.
@@DrewsGuitarShop What are the odds that 5 months later you'd reply when the guitar is back on my bench? I appreciate it. I ended up clamping a couple bad ones high on the neck with a dab of superglue as a test. Couldn't get ends down all the way but it's close. Been measuring every few weeks to see if they lifted more and overall it seems fine. Planning on finally repeating the process with the other bad ones then a full leveling. Superglue terrifies me but there's a healthy layer of wax around each one. I'll have to remove more material on some than I'd like but I'll go as far as I can... hopefully it goes well.
I have a lifter 17th fret on a custom-built classical guitar. Unfortunately it cannot be pushed down. Most if the lift is at center of fret. Location of fret being next to sound hole presents a challenge. Any suggestion on how to go about it?
Level crown and polish.
Can you use that technique for lifted inlays ?
I am not sure how you could.
A tool I should probably have
