Re: Stainless or EVO
A friend of mine refretted his JBovier F5 Special with stainless and claims it improved the sound dramatically. I haven't been able to verify that myself but he's a veteran player that knows what he's talking about. One thing about stainless is, although I understand it's a pain to install, it will most likely be the last fret job you'll need. I've also heard very good things about EVO, but don't personally know anyone that has used it. I do know it much easier to install and still lasts a good long time.
