The MusicNomad Fret Shield sets the standard for total fretboard protection while polishing frets. This reusable design goes on in seconds and fully protects your instrument without damaging the fretboard, lasting for hundreds of jobs. The high-quality stainless steel is the perfect thickness at .008" and uses a precision manufacturing process free of burrs to leave all edges smooth and rounded. The innovative drop-down edges allow the included rubber bands to hold the Fret Shield in place and to avoid any damage during the polishing process. Fret Shields come in the most popular fret scale sizes and even include a convenient hang hole. Whether your fretboard is finished maple or unfinished rosewood with inlays, your board will thank you for protecting it.

With many different Fret Shields, make sure you choose the one that fits your fret scale size by using a tape measure or ruler, align the 1" mark with the inside edge of the nut and measure to the center of the 12th fret. Take the difference between the measurement and 1" and double it to calculate your guitar scale. Use Music Nomad Tri-Beam Fret Scale Ruler MN820 (sold separately) to determine your fret scale size and which Fret Shield to buy. Common 24.75" Fret Scales are Most: Epiphone, Guild Electric.
