Fret Slot Cleaning Tool

Take it from Dan Erlewine, "a fret won't seat well if its slot isn't clean!" We developed our slot cleaning tool to effectively remove wood chips, dust, grime and old glue from fret slots.

This hefty 5-1/2" tool now has a more comfortable ergonomic handle with a metal collet. It's fitted with a replaceable hooked fret slot cleaner, a 0.019" thin square-edged chisel that's ideal for getting into the corners of the slots on bound fretboards.
