Fret Rocker


Read 91 Reviews   |   Write a Review

To pinpoint those pesky high frets, and check the final height after you've redressed or replaced them, reach for the Fret Rocker! Our 4-in-1 mini straightedge spans three frets and "rocks" to indicate uneven fret heights. Precision-machined for accuracy to .0015" per foot, the 4", 3", 2" and 1-5/16" edges make it versatile for any fretted instrument, from basses to guitars to mandolins.

Want a good setup or not?

Get one. I've leveled frets with every sophisticated technique out there and still can find renegade high spots within a single fret with this. If you're not too lazy to use it (checking each fret across the entire fret, not just down the middle), you will achieve setups that are as good as it can get and are otherwise impossible.

Essential Tool!

Don't use them often but when you need them they make it so easy to find the bad fret!

Even for bass !

This tool is as simple as accurate .
Even for a 36.5" bass in the first scales of the neck that are really wide .

Magnificent and not expensive tool!

I replaced frets for the first time and thanks to this tool my work much more was facilitated! In the future I constantly will work only as this tool.

Fret Rocker

Very useful tool, I use it all the time while pressing frets with 'Jaws'to adjust the level as far as possible as I go along. Then I check the whole fingerboard prior to leveling.

1 vs. 4

I have been using 4 different length strait edges to check for high frets. The Rocker also saves some time. All you have to do is rotate it for the next correct length. Another perfect tool for fret work.
