How To Defret A Bass Guitar
Part 4 - Level Fret Slots
The Bass Defret Process
4. Clean and level the slots:
Make sure all the fret slots are clean and flat along the bottom using a fret saw. I also removed the filler on the edges of the fretboard with the saw. Here's Dave hard at work on his Kramer defret!
The objective for leveling the slot is to make the slot clean and flat at the bottom of the slot. This allows for a good, tight fit for the veneer. Again, for all the obvious reasons, go easy and slow with the saw to avoid cutting too deep.
