Fret Tang Cutter

On my first guitar, which had a bound fingerboard, I cut and filed away the tang section underneath the part of the fret that lies over the fingerboard binding. It was tedious and time-consuming work. This tool makes that job a lot easier. You simply insert the end of the fret into the tool, and it cuts away only the part of the tang you want cut away, instantly! It is available from Stewart-MacDonald's Guitar Shop Supply.
