Fretboard Redressing

[Stuart Tucker]

Steve,
How often do you have your fretboards redressed?

 

[HippieOfDoom]

Never.

 

[Stuart Tucker]

Seriously? You've never had any of your fretboards redressed?

 

[HippieOfDoom]

Nope.

So, wouldn't the fretboard get torn to hell since you're using heavy gauge roundwounds? Also, how would a redressed fretboard sound different from one that has grooves ground into them?
