The "problems" all started when I decided to make an extra one for a luthier friend - who was blown away by how well it worked, and could no longer do fretwork without it.He then shared it with another luthier - who immediately asked me if I could make 5 of them for the guys in his shop... and it just snowballed from there. Since then I've made and shipped thousands of the original Ultimate Fret End file all over the world - personally modifying each file by hand... until it became physically impossible to do it anymore... my hands ache just thinking about it. Over the past 5 years we've tried and tried to find a file manufacturer who was capable (and willing) to create a file like this for us and our fellow guitar geeks. China was out of the question. We actually tried, and their attempts to create a Swiss quality file were... laughable. The only way to make this happen was to go to the source. The only challenge? Two of them actually: The first was the expense of having a custom file made by old-world craftsman. The second was, one look at the level of detail and precision in our file design, and they passed on it. We even got as far as prototype samples, but they were just too complicated and costly to make. But we finally stumbled upon a craftsman from one of Europe's oldest and most respected file makers who was willing to take on the challenge.The design and prototype process has taken years and many revisions. They tell me these are the most detailed and complicated files they've ever made. Review: Great file. Review: Great quality ## Features - The most advanced and precision fret end dressing file available - designed from the ground up specifically for fret ends - this is your most effective weapon in the battle against sharp fret ends, " fret sprout ", and a must-have for a smoother, faster playing guitar that inspires you to play more often. - For details and a video on how to use the file, go to: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Hti5s8LP9A . This shows the old, original file, but the technique is the same. - Precision flat ground, diamond honed and polished bottom - so the file glides across your fingerboard without scuffing the wood, finish or binding. We've teamed up with one of Europe's oldest and most respected file makers to help us create this finely crafted file, then we put the finishing touches and final diamond hone and polish here in our shop. Definitely NOT made in China. - Top of file has a smooth, safe ground edge, and the upper corners and tip are completely rounded and beveled to prevent damage to your fretboard and guitar. Also comes with a top quality, made in USA hardwood handle that feels comfortable in your hand, and takes the pain out of working on your frets. - Innovative Double Ski-Tip design, to protect your guitar top from scratches and dings. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Item Weight | 41 g | | Product Dimensions | 20.32 x 2.54 x 2.54 cm; 41 g | | Item model number | Fre-7943 | | Material Type | Hardened tool steel | ## Images ![FretGuru Ultimate Fret End File 2 - Fix Sharp Fret Ends, Fret Sprout, Fret End Dressing File Pro Luthier Tool Guitar Tech [FINALLY AVAILABLE AGAIN - ADVANCED NEW DESIGN SHIPPING NOW] - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81q0POTITgL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Is this effective with stainless steel frets?** A: Yes totally! **Q: Can this be used on a ukulele?** A: Hello W3,Sure, the file can be used on any fret end - be it a ukulele or a bass.Let me know if you have any other questions.Thanks!Bernie / FretGuru **Q: I just ordered and is on backorder...any idea when more will be available?** A: Hello DGore, I just took a look, and though Amazon is showing these files as out of stock, they're getting more of them moved around to their various warehouses as we speak. We just sent a few more files to Amazon last week so it should only be a few days. They often overstate the back in stock date by a few days, but you can come back the next day (or later that day) and they'll show as "In Stock". Worst case you can check the other listing that we fulfill (the one that says "Sold by and ships from FretGuru") and I can send it out within a few days. Thanks again, Bernie / FretGuru **Q: Why this over the StewMac version?** A: The main advantage is the FretGuru fret end file has a bottom that is 2x as wide, the advantage being it stays stable and planted on fingerboard, and doesn't topple over dig into your fingerboard like the narrow SM file. The bottom is also diamond honed and polished by hand here at our shop, so it's extra smooth to prevent damage to your fingerboard. ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great file. *by J***J on 9 September 2023* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality *by L***D on 28 April 2021* ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ file *by C***L on 30 June 2024* ## Frequently Bought Together - FretGuru Ultimate Fret End File 2 - Fix Sharp Fret Ends, Fret Sprout, Fret End Dressing File Pro Luthier Tool Guitar Tech [FINALLY AVAILABLE AGAIN - ADVANCED NEW DESIGN SHIPPING NOW] - FretGuru Fret Crowning File – Diamond Dagger 2.0 Fret File Crowning Tool – The Guitar Luthier Tool for Ultra Precise Frets on Electric, Acoustic, and Bass Guitars - MD, LG, XL Frets - FretGuru Leveling Beam Replacement Sandpaper - 400 Grit 5 - Pack Advanced Ceramic Film - Backed Self - Adhesive Strips for All Sanding Beam Fret Leveler 16” 400mm P400 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - πŸ›’ **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** β€” Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** β€” Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - πŸ’° **No Hidden Fees** β€” All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - πŸ”„ **15-Day Free Returns** β€” Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - πŸ”’ **Secure Payments** β€” Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** β€” Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.tn/products/294906029-fretguru-ultimate-fret-end-file-2-fix-sharp-fret-ends](https://www.desertcart.tn/products/294906029-fretguru-ultimate-fret-end-file-2-fix-sharp-fret-ends) --- *Product available on Desertcart Tunisia* *Store origin: TN* *Last updated: 2026-07-12*
