Fretwork

Sometimes your frets need a little help... but don't fret! Dukes Guitarworks can do any fretwork that your guitar might need! All services in this category include a premium setup.

Level, Crown, and Polish

$150

Over time, your frets might wear down, especially the frets you love the most. This can cause buzzing and dead notes on your neck. To fix this, we file down all of your frets together, so that they're perfectly straight. Then, your frets will be flat on top, so we file each one back to a nice point (AKA crown) and then polish them out to a high shine.

Single Fret Replacement

$170

Do you have a single fret that needs to be addressed? We'll replace that fret for ya, and then level, crown, and polish all your frets together so they match up. Price is for single fret; $20 per additional fret

Full Standard Refret

$350

After a while, your frets might wear down so far that there's nothing left to level! We'll replace the whole set for ya, and then level, crown and polish them all to get your fretboard playing like new! This also might be the option for you if you want wider or narrower frets. Wanna put some jumbos on your Strat? We gotcha covered!

*This service applies to unbound necks only

Standard Refret for Stainless Steel Frets

$420

Stainless steel frets last much longer than standard frets, but they are also much harder to work with, and wear down our tools much faster.

Standard Refret for Bound Necks

$500

We all love a clean looking bound neck... until it's time for a refret. Each fret has to be individually filed to remove the tang and avoid chipping your finish or cracking your binding. To be honest, this price is kinda high because I really hate doing it, but if you're willing to pay 500 bucks, I'll soldier through it :)
