What should I consider when choosing a fret size?
The frets are a fundamental part of the instrument and are in constant contact with the player's fingers. This is why their choice will play a very important role in the construction of the instrument.
As far as playability is concerned, two factors must be taken into account: fret height and fret width.
Fret height refers to the distance between the fingerboard and the top of the fret. With higher frets there is less contact between the fingers and the fingerboard. Thus less pressure is needed to sound the notes. This facilitates techniques such as bending and tapping.
On the other hand, fret width refers to the width of the top of the frets. With wider frets the angle between the fingerboard and the top of the fret crown is less. This makes it easier to glide over the fingerboard. This contributes to a smoother playing feel when using wider frets. And this, in turn, makes it easier to bend the strings.
