Another little tip: “Those little stainless steel guards” for your frets
are available from most office or art supply stores at a fraction of the
Stew-Mac cost. They are called erasing shields and are found in the
drafting supplies department and come in a variety of shapes and sizes.
They are used in the drafting and art trade to shield parts of a drawing
>from the ravages of an electric eraser.
