When to choose it

Choose the metric trio if you need to document string height and check local fret contact in the same setup workflow. Keep the action reading separate from the rocking check, since the two tests use different reference points.

The Fret Kisser is the cutting tool in the set. Identify the cause of any uneven contact before using it, and follow the maker’s procedure if the fret actually needs material removed.
