I have a general question... based on Mandohack's experience switching frm smaller frets to larger ones on his Draleon Royale, I'm considering doing this to an Eastman (with thin wire as well). In general how much should I pay for this work done by a competent person to a mando with a bound fingerboard. This is assuming the fingerboard doesn't need any planing or other work than to remove and replace the frets.
Is my guess of ~$300 reasonable, high, or low? Maybe with some more for the job if a new nut is required after putting in larger wire... I'm just wanting to know for budgeting this or deciding if it is worth pursuing. At a couple or 300 it would be worth it closer to $500 I would opt to deal with it the way it is. Thanks in advance. I'm just looking for ballpark figures.
