    Enjoy your channel. Purchased your String & Pickup height gauges - Love em. I've had great success using Music Nomad Frine Fret Polishing Kit.

    Got the same model Eppi (2014). Great guitar. If one becomes available then just buy it.

    Thanks for the video --always informative. :) Quick question: Were you concerned that going through that series of abrasive pads would affect the crown of the frets? i.e. flatten them out some?

      No, because the pads are soft and conform to the shape of the frets- plus, I wasn't applying a lot of pressure. Of course, do everything evenly across the fretboard.

    I made jump to fret eraser's a few months ago, can't really say that I care for them. I'm still going to use them, to expensive not to.

      They are good for general fret cleaning - that is what I use them for mainly

    Metal polish works better than sanding metal away and mishaping crowned frets.

      I don't find that metal polish alone gets rid of the scratches- you do need to sand a bit especially with how corroded these frets were
