MusicNomad MN830 Diamond Coated Guitar Fret End Dressing File (E-File), Luthier & Tech Tool for Fret Sprout, Sharp Ends & Deburring

Fantastic luthier tool!!! This works on stainless and regular frets. I have used this in 10 guitars. Gets frets smooth and rounded.

Nice file for frets

I use this in conjunction with the MusicNomad frets beveling tool, and they do an excellent job of getting the frets to ideal condition that's comfortable to play. The safety feature with the smooth sides makes it easier to use as you don't have to worry about accidentally taking off too much of the fretboard material.

This is well thought out tool, essentially similar to other fret files. The innovation here is the handle, which would be great on a screwdriver, but since filing fret ends is a delicate business, I found I got better and more precise results my with my Stew Mac file which is smaller and held with your fingertips. I also found I could sense how much I was taking off the fret better with the conventional teeth of the Stew Mac file vs. the diamond surface on this file.Still, this is good tool and not overhyped like some other Music Nomad stuff. If you need a fret end file this is a perfectly good choice.

Worked outstanding to file the ends of the frets without damaging guitar. No more catching edges. Great price and great tool.

It does what its supposed to do and does it well. Another tool I will always have on my bench.

Worked great on a refret with stainless frets. Safe edge prevents damage to fretboard and/or binding. I don’t think you need to spend $80-$100 when this works great for 1/4 the price.

Not the evenest coating or finest as it’s a bit coarse but it worked well enough and I was able to polish scratches out without taking too much extra time. For the money though I would say it was worth the cost as compared. Just not sure I couldn’t have done the same with a set of regular small files.
