This morning I got back after the fret ends. Filed each end of the 22 frets very carefully with the file, then sanded along the side of the neck using the 80 grit then 120 affixed to my leveling bar.
That's the blue thing in the background
Looks and feels much much better
Then I recrowned the ends. That little arrow shape is what I'm after.
Next I need to make sure the neck is flat.
This little LED light helps. These things are awesome. $10 for a six pack. They stick in anywhere. I've got 2 mounted under the head of the drill press, and keep one handy fit things like this.
Not flat :
Twist the truss rod nut :
Now it's flat
Next part is fun
