Bozz Posted August 15, 2019 Share Posted August 15, 2019 (edited) Does anyone know what size frets were used on a 2011 (08) Les Paul Standard? I had one until recently and I tended to pull notes sharp while fretting in certain situations. Would like to know what size frets were used as a reference going forward. Thanks!

Bozz Posted August 16, 2019 Author Share Posted August 16, 2019 Thanks. Medium Jumbos might work better for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How were you doing this? Pressing too hard between frets? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leonard McCoy Posted August 17, 2019 Share Posted August 17, 2019 Or really high action and pressing hard, who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bozz Posted August 20, 2019 Author Share Posted August 20, 2019 Thanks for all the responses to my question about the 2011 LP fret size. Yes, the issue is definitely caused from applying too much pressure between frets. I'm an older guy (mid 60's) with some stiffness and flexibility issues in my hands and fingers. I've had four surgical procedures on my hands and I'm thinking that dropping down to Medium Jumbo frets with a height of .036" might help me out.
