Undercuts fretwire cleanly

Fret Tang Nipper

There's gotta be an easier way to trim the ends of the frets to fit over the neck bindings, right? The Fret Tang Nipper does an outstanding job of undercutting fretwire to fit over neck bindings, speeds up fret jobs on bound necks, and helps save the lacquer finish at the edges of unbound fretbooards.

Just insert the wire to the desired depth in the guide notch, squeeze the handle, and the wire is quickly and cleanly undercut, with no bending or crimping.
