A Jumbo Fretwire Designed for Precision in the Workshop
The Dunlop Accu-Fret 6170 fretwire is a reference choice for guitarists and luthiers seeking a consistent jumbo fret suitable for modern setups. Its shape promotes expressive playing (bends, legato, vibrato) while offering a generous contact surface for comfortable fretting. Thanks to its 18% nickel silver alloy and Hard version, it is especially suited for heavily played instruments, limiting premature wear such as grooves and flat spots on the frets.
