Diamond Fret Levelers


Read 18 Reviews   |   Write a Review

These industrial diamond-coated steel blocks are manufactured as tool sharpeners. They're excellent for putting a razor edge on chisels and knives, and we discovered they're also great for leveling frets.

Available in three models, the cutting surfaces are a bit finer than our other diamond-coated fretting tools. They always remain flat, and won't break, chip or crack.

Sold individually or SAVE when you buy the set of all three fret levelers.

Diamond fret levellers

Super-glue some scrap wood handle on them and you're off and filing (the little rubber pads do nothing).

Diamond Leveler

325 coarse grit took tops of frets off quickly without being too aggressive for a first time level, crown & polisher like I was. Lead to a good low action job. Very happy with the product.

Excellent to say the least!

Have the 800 grit. Used it to shave of fret sprout, filing of edges on plastic details, and even sharpening broken chisels. All with excellent result. Why didn't I get one years ago?

Lifesaver!

....or should I say fret-saver?
Bought an old '74 SG with the worst possible fret job. Luckily it was fretted with jumbos, so with enough metal to work with, this guitar is now in excellent working condition!

Perfect results

I ordered both the 325 and 1800 for leveling and tool sharpening. They are flat and a good length for spot leveling or for leveling all the frets. You would find it hard to beat these for a really accurate fret job.

Great versatile tool

I use these fret levelers for sharpening my chisels. Works absolutely great!

They Never Wear Out!

i use it to bevel the frets and it's unbelievable how they do not wear out even after so much grinding back and forth on the sharpy fret ends.

i also like to level uneven frets just by dragging it over back and forth, with NO pressure but its own weight (800-grit). this way keeps the frets to flatten out too much, so they'd need a very light crowning job, then.

Diamond Fret Levelers

I thought they would be double sided like all the other's I've seen. Can't assume anything I guess. Seem Like they'll work good though.

Very useful

I found the diamond fret leveler (Fine) very useful for finishing and polishing fret ends, as well as smoothing out the string marks from the tops of the frets. It becomes more difficult to use as you move up the fretboard - perhaps a narrower version would be more useful. However, a very useful tool - for lots of things.
