Post How do G&L install frets?
While the subject of refretting is hot:

Do G&L install frets from the top or from the side (like old Fenders)?

Since we got some recent information pertaining to the Leo-era instruments from Gabe Dellvigne,
those instruments had their frets side loaded. For details, see this post: G&L Frets?.
