    Hi All,

    So today I went about straightening the neck so I could level and recrown the frets.

    My basic method was what has been put on the forum many time.

    Notch straight edge to ensure it’s straight, fret rocker to check the frets, radius sanding block to level frets out and a cheap budget recrowning tool. I also used some fret erasers and a dremel with some polishing compound.

    I got an amazing mirror like shine across the frets, but will need to go back and take out some small marks left by the crowing tool. I also rounded of the fret ends for an over all smother look and feel.
