You need a dremel tool.

You're evil for scalloping such a nice fretboard, seriously, it's way better than any other rosewood one I've played, the grain is so tight, it's like freaking ebony.

Refret

, plus, the frets aren't that great to begin with, but they're worse on my V-250.

If I had the link to the forum thread where the guy originally posted it (sans the word "scallopwned") I'd post it. It's pretty funny, he just posts totally serious and says "I think I did pretty good but I may have gone a bit too deep in spots. Smoothing it out was really hard! What do you guys think?"

Cue ten+ pages of people laughing at him. And someone in that original thread added the caption.

It was on guitar.com or something like that. I do agree, it was hilarious.

And if you do refret, you might want to try out stainless steel fretwire. I hear it lasts forever and is soooooo smooth to play on. Mmmmmm...

and overly bright.....I have them on one of my guitars, its true they last longer and are incredibly smooth but even a warm pickup has trouble helping the brightness,and they are very hard to work with so if a luthier has worked on them before he will probably charge you more........I'm new by the way hows it goin guys,theres prolly an introduction thread on here somewhere but I just decided to jump in.
