mothytim2001 Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Recently bought a new Epiphone Thunderbird pro bass. I've noticed that the fret/fret wire looks like its splitting on most of the frets. Not sure why, I've heard various explanations...coating on the fret wire? or nickel strings rubbing against nickel fret wire? I've still got the factory strings on since I got the bass. I'm not sure if its a fault in the fret wire material. comments advice greatly needed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sjael Posted January 24, 2010 Share Posted January 24, 2010 Definitely doesn't sound good, shouldn't be a problem with strings. I'd send Musikron a PM, he's a luthier and will probably be able to explain it. :- Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
