How To Build Guitars... Which Fret Tang Nipper Should You Buy?

[@mark5150ty]

I have a jig that I built, it has an older style Dremel tool in it with a grinding Stone. I can adjust the level of the stone to accommodate different size fret wire. You just get the Frets cut to length, then insert them into the slot. They come out beautifully and you cannot mess up because it has a depth stop. It's actually very easy to build and I had it together in about an hour and a half

[@TexasToastGuitars]

Interesting!

[@mark5150ty]

@@TexasToastGuitars yeah man it does stainless steel like butter.

[@onpsxmember]

I've seen a setup but more with cutting discs like from Chris at highline guitars. Sounds like a good alternative. How is the stainless steel doing heat-wise? What kind of stone are you using?

[@mark5150ty]

@@onpsxmember I use a heavy grit Stone and I spray it with water to keep the heat down.

great video - always incredibly useful to spend less money based on somebody else's experience with tools that are used on a daily basis. Thank you. I bought the StewMac version and experienced the same issue you had - BUT, your fix was referenced a while back and helped me use the tool effectively.

[@natemasterson1727]

This is perfect timing! I am actively trying to research this very thing. Did one Squier strat refret without and definitely want them for future ones just to help make sure no poky bits like you said. I didn’t like how much I had to sand, risking the finish, to get the tangs smooth. Thanks for the valuable insight! Hope to make it to one of your classes someday!

[@TexasToastGuitars]

I hope you can make it too Nate, glad I could help with the research

[@jamesreaves5534]

I'm glad you posted this. I'm going to have to get some fret Tang Nippers at some point and I was really considering the summit that you got from jescar. You can also get it from Summit tools. They have little 1 or 2 minute videos showing someone using Summit tools. All Summit tools are specifically made for guitar use versus the Fret Nippers you show. Those are sheet metal nibblers that are repurposed regrinding them to make them work Fretwire. They weren't designed to be used as Fretwire Cutters originally. When you watch the short videos they have on the jescar website you can plainly see Summit tools are Superior, especially when you compare them to videos of other tools. Summit Cutters are designed for cutting Fretwire whereas all the rest of the fret wire cutters on the market are flush ground wire Nippers. I really like the way Summit overhang fret wire cutters are designed with their specific sized plate you put on them that holds your fat wire in place and the fret wire cutting part comes up under the fretwire cutting it off flush and clean while the plate sits on top of the fretboard and holds your fretwire nice and straight preventing it from being deformed when you cut it. You can just look at the design of it and see that it's Superior in its design to a set of flush ground wire Nippers which were never designed to cut Fretwire in the first place. Summit Fretting Tools look like something you'd see in a factory that runs three 8-hour shifts with the factory running 24 hours a day 7 days a week. The best anybody else has is something that looks like it would be used in a small shop. Summit tools are the only ones I have seen that are made specifically for the purpose they are being sold for vs everybody else's tools being made by repurposing another tool. You are correct in saying that if you could only get one it would be the Summit. Yes they might cost $20 or even $50 more but you won't have to buy another one anytime soon. I think you would end up wearing out most of the tools you buy with just one to maybe three sets of stainless steel fret wire refret jobs. On regular soft nickel silver fret wire they might last a fairly good while but on this new stuff, especially stainless they aren't going to last long and even if they do last a fairly long time on nickel silver they aren't going to last anywhere near the length of time that a Summit tool will. Just look at the hardness ratings they have on the jescar website of the summit tools versus the hardness ratings on the other tools you can buy you can easily see what I'm talkin about. I think you would go through four or five sets of the other tools in the same length of time you would wear out one set of summit tools. For someone running a small shop Summit Tools will last you a lifetime and then some, not to mention the fact that every time you use them they're doing a lot better job. Jimmy in NC....

[@kokoteleguitarworks1794]

Thanks for the good review. I found this video because I'm looking for my replacement for the Klein-style tool. (If you slip the red grips off of the handles, you'll see it was stamped by Klein, and they stopped making that style of nibbler.) I've had the Klein for 10+ years and it's served me well, but after using it on stainless and EVO frets, the cutter has become dull and it doesn't do a great job for me anymore. It never did a great job of cutting the tang off cleanly, so I've always had to clean up the cut with a file afterwards. I'll check out the Summit tool.

[@sharkey5150]

Hello Texas Toast! Thank you for the great video! When I was 17 I was lucky enough to have a job at a wholesale hardwood supply warehouse, mostly for cabinet makers, out of Martinez, Ga. It didn’t take long before a local “Guitar Luthier” who, for the price of me bringing in mostly scrap and some 10’-12’ lengths of 4/4 and 8/4 hardwoods regularly, he would teach me whatever I wanted to know about guitar luthier as an apprentice under him. I only got to learn from him for just over a year before I was picked up by a touring band. He taught me and I did many, many set ups for him, cut out bodies, used routing templates and even a little about how to spray finish tobacco burst bodies. My last project, he guided me through, was making my own Strat style guitar body, all top mounted, no pick guard out of a solid one piece 8/4 hard rock maple that I found just laying over by the dumpster at the warehouse. You wouldn’t believe some of the awesome species we would use as dunnage just to set the huge bundles of hard woods from Alder, Maple, Purple Heart, Poplar, Ash, etc. Man, did I ever learn my lesson on cutting, routing and sanding and sanding and sanding and even more sanding on that maple that felt like I was working with cast iron. I still have that guitar! It weighs more than the heaviest of Les Pauls and has a CRAZY bright tone. I performed with it for years as a youngster. The only thing I can say that I really regret when I left his tutelage was how to install frets. Mainly, I’d love to learn how to re-Fret my first American 50th anniversary Strat neck that I flat wore out. It’s still in great shape neck wise but, I replaced it with a crazy expensive Warmoth Custom neck that, because of the band I was with at the time, they made it for me for 1/2 price, which was still crazy expensive. I’m sure it was because I had to have SS frets, made it a short scale. I was young and dumb and thought I had an original idea, although it does play really slinky and awesome. I do believe the tone suffers a little. It also has the cool truss rod adjustment that comes out at a right angle towards the floor at the heel while holding in playing position. Now for the million dollar question. Do you do re-fret work? Also, do you think it would be worth it to use SS frets? Sorry, I suppose I should contact you through your site but, I got so excited about the possibility of getting the original neck fretted I just started typing in the comment. Heck, IDK.? It might could be leveled and crowned. It’s never had any fret work done to it. Honestly, I totally believe all the touring with it, traveling via bus with it locked up in its ol’ water resistant SKB case, did most of the damage. It’s basically got a divot on nearly every fret where each string crosses. I believe it was mostly caused by the vibration of all the miles over roads like Mississippi, Alabama and Louisiana. Please let me know if this would be a project that You would consider doing and an approximate price. Maybe hit me up with a way to contact you to talk $. Thank you for your time, and I’m really sorry for the novel.

[@kmichaelp4508]

You are right Mar ten ez...bet you can tell I know the place... this was a novel!

[@jimbucket2996]

That is a neck tilt adjustment not a truss rod adjustment.

[@sharkey5150]

Jim Bucket No, I’m sorry Jim. You’d think with the “novel” I wrote this morning I would’ve done a better job describing it. Goes to show that playing guitar until the early morning hours makes me, for one, talk too damn much without saying a whole lot. I apologize to you all and “Texas Toast”. Yeah, I’m aware of the tilt adjust on the back, thru the neck plate. This “Custom Warmoth” neck I had made approximately 7 years ago has what they call modern “side adjust mechanism”. I should of just posted this page to begin with. Check this out www.warmoth.com/Guitar/Necks/SideAdjust.aspx Btw, it also is labeled “Endorsed By Fender” under side flat area that’s of course hidden when installed. Apologies to everyone!! 👍👍🦈

I’m a guitarist on the east coast US. I’m just now chilling to take a power nap before I have to be at my Guitar instructor job at “Columbia Arts Academy” Columbia, SC. at the break of 11AM. Ha ha ha! I’ve been playing guitar since age 6, first learning from my Pop, guitar Magazines, Books, lessons here and there,, ear training and learning an incredible amount from the “school of hard knocks” on the road with various bands ranging from late 80’s hair bands, 90’s Grunge, Classic hard rock, Jazz, Blues and now even Country. I was “Drafted” by my first pro band of older and much more experienced musicians when I was 18 that were all too happy to teach me everything they knew about performing, taking care of your health, doing it for all the right reasons. I mostly toured the South East USA. I’ve had a couple small record deals with 2 of the many bands I’ve played with through the years. I’m very lucky to have been able to play professionally ever since. For the past 15 years I’ve been teaching at the one of the largest, most popular chain of schools in the Southeast US and across the world. We have 3 locations in SC area that I Instruct from. Since the Covid out break we shifted right over to our Online lessons. Now, we do both online and in person with mask’s on. I teach from 3 SC location; Columbia Arts Academy (SC), Lexington School of Music (SC) and Irmo Music Academy( SC). I instruct Mon. thru Thurs. 11AM - 9PM and until 6PM on Fri. so I can make it to a gig at least 3-6 nights a month on the weekends. Needless to say, Guitar is in my blood. I’ve been playing now for 48 years... damn! , that’s a crazy long time. Guitar is my life! It’s the only thing that this adult diagnosed “ADD” fruitcake has ever been able to stick with my whole life. It’s the only subject that I believe no one will ever know it all. There is always something new just ahead to learn. Either some new technique, tone, style, and types of music to be learned. I now really live to teach and try to bring the younger next generation of young and old, male and female “heathens” everything I can so that the young can take what I’ve learned in a lifetime and take it to the next level, whatever that may be. To be honest, if it wasn’t for guitar, I really don’t think I could have made it this far in my life. My many guitars have always been there for me, never left me like so many women and friends through the years. I’m happily married now. Guitar is truly therapeutic. I apologize for the novel but, as you can tell, this is one subject that I never tire of. Hey, if you get a chance, check us out online at www.columbiaartsacademy.com. See what my life force is all about. Maybe sign up for a couple online sessions or just look around at how far myself with my dear friend, owner, director and USC Master Guitarist Marty Fort has accomplished in only 15 short years. I believe it is truly inspiring. ✌️and Good health to You and all that have read through this way too long comment .👍👍🦈

I bought the StewMac nippers and, it's probably my technique, but they suck!. I would have thought that what the tool should do is present a flat plate with a groove you drop the tang into so the wire is supported on the shoulders and can't twist. The StewMac (a crudely modified sheet metal nibbling tool) has a square profile slot you drop the fret in to sideways. There is no support for the body of the fret.

[@TexasToastGuitars]

I hated them too but then kept working with them and now I like them okay.

[@KB-kc7ou]

i'm not so smart but Matt has shamed me into building one myself. I went the Harbor Freight route, sort of. Being up in Canada my option was a cheap nibbler bought off of Amazon that I Dremeled a slot into. That and a pass or two with a file for cleanup worked great.

Sure I paid 17 Canadian for them to modify, but if I didn't catch myself, I almost put the slot for the fret to ride in the wrong place, essentially throwing out said 17 bucks.
