#37 - Does Fret Size and Material Make a Difference? Artwork

Weekly Wednesday Q&A with Juha Ruokangas

Let's talk about guitars. I'll do my best to help you understand your instrument better, and give all tips I can, so you could get the most out of your guitar and enjoy making your music even more! I make guitars for my living. These podcasts, however, are not about selling my guitars to you. I make my Q&A videos and podcasts to help you get more out of the guitar you already own, and understand your instrument better. The brand or monetary value of your guitar doesn't make a difference, either.

#37 - Does Fret Size and Material Make a Difference?

May 26, 2021 • Juha Ruokangas • Episode 37

"Medium or Jumbo frets? Narrow or wide? Nickel silver or stainless steel? EVO gold - what the heck is that anyways..!?"

Don't fret - you're not alone if you're confused about guitar frets, considering how many choices there are available these days. On this episode of my Weekly Wednesday Live Q&A I'll address what are the meaningful differences between different fret sizes and materials.

This broadcast is targeted to all of you who enjoy guitars and basses, be it players, enthusiasts or collectors alike! The program is not about the guitars we make in my company Ruokangas Guitars. I'm doing this for you, who are interested in learning more about your instrument. The brand or monetary value of your guitar makes no difference whatsoever.
