    Does anyone besides me have Stainless frets on thier Poe? I have been playing with mine for almost 3 years and it barely shows any wear at all. Usually my mandos are ready for a refret or at least a fret dress by now. I love the SS frets. Best 100 bucks I ever spent!

    Besides the wear, are there other benefits to staineless frets? Does it effect the tone?

    Darrin,
    When I ordered #16, I asked for SS frets, but Andy said he was no longer offering them - mainly because SS was too hard on tools. Since then, I see he is offering them again. Maybe down the road on a refret...

    Glad to hear yours are working out so well.

    Since my Poe was built with SS frets I cant really compare the tone before and after but I think it sounds great and I dont really see a difference from standard frets. Besides the most obvious benefit, never needing a refret, they stay nice and shiney all the time and never tarnish.
