If your guitar feels rough when you bend strings or play up the neck, it’s time for a fret polish. At [Your Business Name], we offer professional fret polishing in Southampton that restores smooth playability, improves tone, and extends the life of your instrument.
Why Fret Polishing Matters
Over time, frets develop oxidation, dirt, and micro-scratches that can make playing uncomfortable and dull your tone. A fret polish removes these imperfections, leaving your frets clean, shiny, and fast under your fingers.
Benefits include:
Smoother bends and slides
Improved sustain and tone clarity
Reduced string wear
Better overall playability
Fret polishing is often part of a full guitar setup, but it can also be done as a standalone service if your frets just need a little care.

Our Fret Polishing Process
We use professional luthier-grade tools and compounds to gently clean and buff your frets without damaging your fretboard or finish. Each instrument is inspected before and after polishing to ensure perfect results.
For heavily worn frets, we also offer fret leveling and crowning to remove flat spots and buzzing — restoring your guitar’s smooth feel and accurate intonation.
