SINTOMS Set 6 of Nickel Silver frets 1,9mm extra hard

General description of the SINTOMS Set 6 of Nickel Silver frets 1,9mm extra hard:

The SINTOMS Set 6 of Nickel Silver frets 1,9mm extra hard is made by one of the world's leading fret manufacturers. These frets are made of alpaca, also known as German silver, an alloy composed of zinc, copper and nickel. With 18% nickel, these SINTOMS frets are extra hard, which means they offer increased durability and corrosion resistance.

The SINTOMS fret set includes six 1.9mm frets, perfect for those looking for a smaller size for greater comfort and more accurate notes.

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 fretboard. This contributes to a smoother playing feel when using wider frets. And this, in turn, makes it easier to bend the strings.
