Guitar Repair Technician Training 205 (GRT205) (in-person)

GRT205 is the next step in our Guitar Repair Technician mentorship pathway, designed for graduates of GRT201—or equivalent experience (please contact first)—who are ready to learn professional-grade full and partial refrets.

Across two intensive days you’ll learn to evaluate fret condition, safely remove worn frets, prepare and repair fret slots, and install new fretwire using both hammer and press-fit methods. You’ll blend new frets seamlessly into existing ones, level, crown, and polish for flawless playability, and finish with precision fret-end dressing and nut adjustments to suit the new fret height. This is hands-on, tool-in-hand training that turns “functional” fret replacement into exceptional, professional-level results. No minors permitted.

Seats are limited. Learn more at the link below.
