"So stupid!"
That's what I told myself after I marred a number of frets by pressing the Stew Mac String Height Guage down too hard and then stupidly slided the guage up and down the frets in an attempt to check for any high frets. After I was done, I notice tiny shallow tool marks on a few frets. Barely but still noticeable when I tried to bend notes on the A string. I could feel a teeny tiny click.
How do I fix this? I figure probably smooth them out with steel wool? What number to start with? 0? 00?
I will tape off the wooden part of the fingerboard first to avoid yet another stupid mistake.
