fret size on an 1993 asat classic leo fender signature

Post by Avirex »

Hello,

I'm new here even if I'm the happy owner of a 1993 asat classic LF sig #G0030271
I bought the guitar in 1996 if I remember well.
Anyway, I've always loved the fret work on this instrument and particularly the fret size.
As I have to refret my (already restored) early 66 Fender Stratocaster I really would like to put the same fret on it.

I made a measurement myself and that's the result :
width : 2,7 mm on bottom and 2,4mm on top. The fret seem to have a trapezoidal section.
height or crown : 1,5mm
It appears to be clearly a jumbo size but I don't find anything similar around.
Maybe someone knows something about those frets ?

Than you very much

They are Medium Jumbo Dunlop 6100 frets. Reference post in G&L Knowledgebase forum: G&L Frets?

Hope this helps.
