The HOSCO Fret Tang Nipper is a precision tool designed specifically for luthiers working with medium frets. Perfect for fretting bound fingerboards, this tool cleanly trims only the tang (tongue) of the fret, helping reduce labor and preserve binding edges during installation.
Crafted in Japan by trusted manufacturer HOSCO, this nipper is optimized for use with nickel silver frets and is not suitable for stainless steel or hardened frets. Its ergonomic design and sharp edges ensure accurate, efficient results for professional fretwork.
