Stainless Steel Refrets

Interesting. I did manage to guess which was which - I thought the SS frets were just a little brighter, but this could possibly be explained by slight differences in the pickups. It's hard to say if there is much of an actual difference.

 

Have you every looked at Daisy Tempest's videos on YT? She is a luthier and makes some lovely looking acoustic guitars with not so lovely prices, but when you see the work that goes into them, you can see why they are so expensive.

Sound wise, yeah, it's a bit like the old maple / rosewood board debate on a Strat. To my mind, the primary benefit would be their durability more than affect on the sound.
