Fret Cauls, Fret Presses, Fret Hammers, and Misc. Gadgetry

Please note that wood on the bottom cauls may be not be exactly as pictured , depending what is available at the time. For those luthiers who always wanted this professional fretting tool, but were just not willing to pay that high price at Stewmac's,here is an excellent opportunity to purchase one for half the price. It might look a little less fancy ,but let me assure you,functionally , I would argue,this one is better. Why? Well, it will get you through a whole neck. This was one of the feedback post on their website: "I purchased this tool to do a refret where hammering was not going to be a good option for setting the frets. This tool worked well for what I intended. My only feedback is that it would be nice to have a selection of bottom cauls that would accommodate the transition from the neck to the heel and also for the flat portion of a fender neck at the heel where it mounts to the body. In other words, it would make the tool useful through the full length of a removable neck." Well here at Guitarbuilderonline.com we like to solve the shortcomings of some tools. So we have developed additional two bottom cauls.One for the heel of the neck and the other for a transitional parts, like a first fret on some Fender necks and a portion after 12th fret,close to the heel. The tool comes with 3 bottom cauls , 8 brass radius inserts ,7-1/4", 9-1/2", 10", 12", 14" 16", 20" and 6"-radius insert to hold down the fret ends for gluing, 1 Allen key. guitarbuilderonline.com
