There is nothing like peace of mind while saving time and money. Music Nomad's Fret Shield sets a new higher standard for total fretboard protection when fret polishing. Say "NO" to blue tape with this reusable design that goes on in seconds, fully protects without damaging the fretboard and lasts 100's of fret jobs. Its high-quality stainless steel is the perfect thickness at .008" (.20 mm), uses a precision-manufacturing process free of burrs, and leaves all edges smooth and rounded. Music Nomad's innovative formed drop-down edges allow the rubber bands included to hold the Fret Shield in place securely and keep the bands below the top surface to avoid damaging them during the polishing process. Fret Shields come in the most popular fret scale sizes and even include a convenient hang hole. Whether your fretboard is finished maple or unfinished rosewood with inlays, your board will thank you for protecting it.

With many different Fret Shields, make sure you choose the one that fits your Fret Scale size by using a tape measure or ruler, align the 1" mark with the inside edge of the nut and measure to the center of the 12th fret. Take the difference between the measurement and 1" and double it to calculate your guitar scale. Use our Tri-Beam Fret Scale Ruler MN820 (sold separately) to determine your Fret Scale size and which Fret Shield to buy.
