Maintenance-free, ""soft"" original stainless steel frets

The original stainless steel frets developed by F.C.G.R. take advantage of the stainless steel's ""absolutely rust-proof"" benefits while providing a natural sound and smooth playing feel without being too hard.

SPEEDY
Fast attack and good sound separation. Even hard, driven sounds maintain a clear sound profile, and they can handle even speedy passages. Although the hardness has been reduced to a level close to that of the hardest nickel silver frets, they offer approximately two to three times the lifespan of standard nickel silver frets, making them highly durable.

""HV = Vickers hardness""...one scale used to express hardness.
