This is why it's a good idea when buying a guitar to get one with a fret board made of hard wood like ebony or rosewood so it will last a long time.
Bob, Gman ( o )==#
On my 12 String Yamaha Acoustic, the
wood between
the first 3
frets has developed horizontal ruts in the wood from the Strings being
fretted I guess.
Can these be sanded flat or is this Guitar now permanently
damaged? Is
this a sign of a warped Neck or normal wear and tear?
Thanks, Bill
| Believe it
or not,
this is normal and won't hurt the playability of the guitar.
Eventually if it becomes too unsightly and you want to have it fixed,
it can be done by a qualified luthier either by removing the frets and
filling the holes or by sanding. Then there's the
refretting. It's kind of a big repair. This is why it's a good idea when buying a guitar to get one with a fret board made of hard wood like ebony or rosewood so it will last a long time. Bob, Gman ( o )==# |
