Location: Utah		Has anyone refretted an Adamas neck with the resin impregnated walnut fretboard? Do the frets pull out cleanly? Are there any special considerations either removing or installing frets?

Location: Utah		My 1537 possibly. It was refurbed by Mother a few years back and cosmetically looks like a new guitar but with 35 years of gorgeous darkening of the top. The frets have some wear though not problematic yet. I prefer modern higher frets to the smaller fret wire used originally, and the EVO Gold would look fantastic on it. So maybe a project for this winter.
