Low fret
I just bought a new guitar. It's perfect in every way except the 14th fret of the high e string is low. How would a luthier fix this? I'm bringing it today and they said they would take care of it but I'm just curious as to how they will fix it. Could they just pop out that fret and install a new one? Would they file the rest to be equal with that? This inquiring mind would like to know...
Thanks |

Both are viable options. Depends in part on the height of the existing frets - how much metal there is to level.

Thanks for the replies. It's an Eastman AC120ce. It's an awesome guitar and now it's even better. The luthier at the shop said the guy at the manufacturer must have gotten a little overzealous on that fret. 20 minutes later he fixed it and now it's awesome! He went and just filed down the rest of the frets below the 14th fret to fix it.
