Specialist Frets Servicing & Maintenance Job Scope
 
1) Frets levelling / Spot(s) levelling
2) Frets crowning
3) Frets edge bevelling
4) Frets edge dressing
5) Frets cleaning & polishing

The cost for a full Specialist Frets Servicing & Maintenance Job Scope is an additional RM  160 flat charge, on top of our 7 Points Specialist Setup & Servicing Job Scope or our Partial Setup & Servicing Job Scope (as per pricing table listed below).

Our Specialist Frets Servicing & Maintenance Job Scope is a compulsory package bundled together with either the 7 Points Specialist Setup & Servicing Job Scope or the Partial Setup & Servicing Job Scope (i.e.: The Specialist Frets Servicing & Maintenance Job Scope cannot be opted or selected by its own). 
 
This is because both our 7 Points Specialist Setup & Servicing Job Scope & our Partial Setup & Servicing Job Scope are usually the final calibration process which will integrate and provide the best combined results from the Specialist Frets Servicing & Maintenance Job Scope done in tandem. This marriage shall then provide you with the best blend of your instrument's playability, comfort, feel, and tone optimisation all under one big equation.


Specialist Refretting / Partial Specialist Refretting Job Scopes

If your instrument needs complete or partial Specialist Refretting work, we are able to provide this service for both unbound and bound neck types. Our complete Specialist Refretting job scope package price begins from RM 800 and up (depending on the type of frets required to be installed, or whether the instrument comes with an unbound or bound fingerboard).

Partial Specialist Refretting work usually starts from RM 450 and up (for the max. replacement of 5 old frets). We therefore recommend a complete refret (see above) for anything that exceeds 5 frets.  Both the Specialist Refretting & Partial Specialist Refretting package prices include  these 3 key work scopes: Specialist Refretting Job Scope or Partial Specialist Refretting Job Scope, Specialist Frets Servicing & Maintenance Job Scope,  & our 7 Points Specialist Setup & Servicing Job Scope.
