Independent shopping perspective

The Korena take

Music Nomad’s Fret Shield protects the fretboard during polishing, leveling, and crowning on 34-inch-scale 4- or 5-string basses with up to 24 frets. The reusable stainless-steel shield is 0.008 inches thick and accommodates narrow through jumbo fret sizes. Included rubber bands connect to its formed drop-down tabs to hold it in place and conform it to the fretboard radius. It is also designed for use with power buffing wheels, polishing pads, and other polishing systems.
