I got a 1957 Acoustic Gretsch as a gift . I had 3 at one time 5 years someone broke in and Stole a Chet Atkins 1960 country gentlemen. they stole a lot Insurance payed 1/4 of what they were worth.
The 1957 needs a fret job they are flat. I need to know what it would cost to re fret. It means a lot to me and the fret board is in beautiful shape no cracks or finger dents. It has Bronze frets It needs a few other things But I want to know a price a guess’

I recently had a fret job done on a 20+ years old Jackson Fusion that I had bought used. It turned out that the previous owner(s) had taken such bad care of it for the last 20 or more years that the frets (esp. 19-24 on the low B string) have become pretty worn down. The person who did it also included a setup/intonation job with it, which was probably necessary too given that little-to-no maintainence had been done on it by previous owner(s).

I went to the String Shop in Murfreesboro, this shop is great. I had the first five fretts replaced &a some frettboard repair on my J200 JR &a a complete refrett on my Les Paul. My guitars are like brand new again. The Les paul is a 1999 the J200 JR is a 1992. He will restring & buff a guitar $40.00 Each. I will get that next.
