Project Guitar Help Centre: Fret Sizes

One of the common questions we get asked here is about the different fret size options. So, we've decided it's best to show here exactly what each fret size is and how the compare.

We use Jim Dunlop frets here in our workshop (we've found them to be the highest quality available) and it's worth mentioning that the sizes quoted below can vary slightly from batch-to-batch but never by any noticeable amount.
