Polish your frets cleanly, quickly, and safely
The MusicNomad MN805 Fret Shield (patented) is the clever accessory for maintaining a B-34 scale bass: it covers the fingerboard on a 636 mm scale instrument with 24 frets to properly polish the frets without risk to the wood or finish. Its tapered design follows the width of the fingerboard from the first to the last fret, while the elastic band ensures a secure hold without marking the instrument. Tested to work with polishing pads, polishing discs, or any other polishing system, it quickly becomes indispensable for a clean and professional result, whether you are a meticulous musician or a demanding technician.
