Hammering the frets

Frets, nickel silver alloy, are hammered into the fingerboard. Each fret has a foot (around 3 mm) that is lined with alternating triangular studs. This structure allows it to catch in the fingerboard, fixing it in place. Although typical guitars have 20 frets, each fret has a different width since the neck grows thicker toward the body.
