Hi lars
how are you?
my sitar is thick wood ravi shankar style [ its from varanci india ] nice sound but i put it in a box and didnt touch it for few weeks
my fret should be in a good shape but somehow they are not
what can i do to fix it [ beforei will try to replace them]
thank you
peace
I've found that a good polishing paper , I'm not sure what different types there are, but 3m makes a good 4/0 emery paper that I've been using for 10yrs now that works very well. You should try to use a dry soft cloth to wipe the frets as often as possible, because the sweat & acids in your fingers cause the problem that you've discribed. . . . .peace
