Fretting Workshop Tool Kit

In support of the Fretting Workshop we are offering a custom tool kit containing a special selection of most of the fundamental tools needed for doing fretwork, general guitar repair and building. There will be other tools and supplies needed for doing fretwork, but this kit represents a great kick start.

The tool kit includes the following items:

 
  • machinist's vise
  • 6” dial caliper
  • finishing guards
  • screwdriver set
  • allen wrenches (english/ metric)
  • 6”scale
  • scribe
  • string winder
  • jewelers saw frame
  • fret pullers
  • fretting hammer
  • leveling tool
 
These tools are the same used at the Specimen workshop every day and can become the beginning of a quality luthier tool collection. Great care has gone into selecting these specific tools based on years of trial and error. This tool kit purchase is by no means mandatory as we provide all of these items for use in the classroom, but we do recommend it as a sensible acquisition for the serious student.
 
If one was to purchase this same selection of tools from a luthier's supply company, the cost would be in excess of $240. We have obtained these items from the original industrial sources and are passing on the savings to our students. The cost of our tool kit is $185 + tax (total $201.65).
