BillyJ Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 Hi guys. I plan on building a neck soon and wondering If I should get a caul to press fretwire or use a hammer. Can I get a good radiused fretwire install without the caul I suppose is what I really want to know. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killemall8 Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 You can, but it is a lot harder to get them to seat evenly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
demonx Posted March 2, 2015 Report Share Posted March 2, 2015 I own the expensive stewmac fretpress and a series of radiused cauls. It's very, very dusty. My fretting hammer has no dust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
