I've had a dagger 2 for about 3 years and it works great and still does after a lot of refrets and fret stones. I can highly recommend it (I'm a retired guitar maker repairer 50 years under my belt) This files as good if not better than ...

My only regret in purchasing Bernie's Fret Dagger and Gauge is I didn't purchase the Fret File and the leveling blocks before I moved back to the Philippines. I set up my USA guitars before I left and am now working on my three Philippin...

An amazing tool. I bought the Fretguru 2.0 Dagger, and it's so intuitive to use. I'd go as far to say that it's almost foolproof. The high quality workmanship that's gone into it during the manufacturing process is evident. I'd happily r...

Great file! I’m well impressed Had a level job that resulted in wide flats on many frets & was dreaded crowning them. Fretguru works great, as sharp as any costing twice as much & way more comfortable! Refreshing these days Johnny RenoPs...

I have been struggling with a mid-priced crowning file I bought a couple of months ago. I never once got that thin, clean sharpie line down the center of the fret. It seemed to be chewing up the top of the frets and making a mess in gene...

I did an A-B test of the Dagger 2 against an expensive diamond crowning file from a well known luthier supplier. The Fretguru tool came out well in front - nice, accurate no-chatter crowning...Highly recommended.

The first Fretguru tool I bought was the dagger 2.0. I wanted to attempt leveling frets on a kit guitar I made for my son. At the time I had also purchased an inexpensive notched straight edge on Amazon. Out of frustration how bad that w...

The FretGuru 2 is an excellent setup and evaluation gauge. It cost less than the comparable item from S***M** and has features and quality the S***M** item lacks. I initially bought a S***M** setup gauge and after a short time it began t...

Started as a luthier during the pandemic because my normal tech was backlogged 3 months. First tools I bought were a FretGuru 21" beam and the Dagger 1.0 file. Original Dagger file was fantastic and the Dagger 2.0 was better! Has allowed...

The FretGuru tool is a must have - so much easier to get an accurate measurement than the stainless steel 6" machinest ruler I've been using. As a company they are also 5 star - Bernie promptly answered my email and issued a credit to fi...

When I received this sanding beam I immediately checked both sides to see if it meets precision flatness as stated. I used my granite surface plate (Grade A Flat to .00005) to verify the beam...it mets or exceeds specs, which FretGuru sp...
