This is my 2nd Stainless steel refret with these Musiclily Frets :)
It makes it very easy and quick to fit the frets because they are already cut to size. All I had to do is snip the ends off with a good cutter.I also Glued the second set in the slots with Proper Titebond wood glue, because when I hammered in the first ones with runny superglue, it spattered all over my guitar and it took a lot of cleaning with industrial acetone. (The lights were dim and I didn't notice until afterwards).The wood glue is extremely easy to wipe off from around the fret straight after the fret is in place.Stainless steel frets are not quite as hard to work with as some might think. They are not as easy to level and crown as standard frets, but it's not that bad. I know that they will last forever, so it's worth it.I have bought another set to fit on my Telecaster as well. I really like these frets a lot. They came in a plain unmarked Packet, but once you start working with them, you know they are stainless steel. And when they are polished they look great.TIP: You have to sort the frets out in order before you start, from shortest to longest, so you have the right lengths as you fit them up the neck to the widest part of the neck.Sorry my Pictures haven't done them justice, But I am very pleased with these frets and might well fit them on all my guitars.Another Bonus is that there Lady who works for Musiclily called Munich Hunter and she is on the Musiclily Facebook group, so what ever parts I want to fit on my guitars, I can ask her or the other very helpful members/Guitar Modders for advice. They are a great crowd and Munich really cares about the products and cares about the Guitar Modders in the group, so all in all it's a very good experience. Highly recommend.

works perfectly
used this on a DIY project, works great and is very easy to install while also being sturdy in the fretboard.

Good deal, look good quality.
Ideal for the price, think I would buy longer ones next time, 2 were too short, but had enough for the job. Average neck width.

Very good quality frets for a very reasonable price
Very good frets wire, very hard to install due to it being stainless but will last forever, accurate sizes and very nice frets overall. I have used this brand for the tremolo bridge and a few other bits for the guitar build I'm currently working on and it's all very good quality.

Great!
I have these on both of my guitars now, I lOVE the size, but that’s subjective, sure...Stainless? They are not that hard, (you get different grades of Stainless Steel), which is good and bad, these are a bit easier to fit and dress, but they wear faster not that they wear fast per se.I used to work in hard metal roofing and yeah, that hard S/S is a nightmare to work with and hard on your tools.These are not much harder to work with than regular frets.They are cut to size more or less, allowing some meat to file back, (This is true on my Godin A6 and maple C neck Strat). But then the tangs are cropped at the ends, so you will have a gap if you have no binding, it doesn’t bother me, you can fill them if it does bother you, or buy two packs and move them all up and use two from the other pack to fill in. I personally don’t like to see filed or filled ends.. If you have a 22 fret you can move them all down anyhow, lose the first two, move them along and you’ll see the filed tang ends, you’ll have to cut them down though.They are smooth to bend strings on, SLICK! And at this size they don't trip your fingers...I LOVE them.....Tone? NO discernible difference....So if you are a DIY luthier like me, don’t be freaked by the stories of stainless being a nightmare, these are not that bad at all... Assuming you have decent tools that is..?

Hard as, well...steel
Musiclily are a bit of a hit and miss brand but these frets were good quality and I would buy again. Definitely made of tough steel as they were quite hard to file down and dress, but I guess that's why you go for steel, they wear down a lot more slowly than nickel.

Good frets, SS is not for the beginner
Ideal size fret for my LP double cut inspired project. Make sure you really want or need stainless steel frets, these are a lot more difficult install than standard nickel silver. I recommend a diamond cutting wheel on a Dremel to trim them, most standard fret nippers will barely leave a mark. Not my first time using these!
