The saddle had a rounded bottom
 After
The bridge where the saddle will sit, is flat.
So should the bottom of the saddle
 The guitar came without strings, so after the strings came on,
we needed to shim the saddle
The guitar is built solid and got away with such a low action!
The treble side is spot on too.

Guitar Repair #536 - Dented Fret Repair - Martin DCPA5 - Acoustic

Martin DCPA5
Here are the dented frets. But I didn't get to picture the fills!

This baby came in 4 months ago for a setup (Guitar Repair #466). She was already suffering from dented frets. But now the owner find the "sitar" too annoying to ignore.

I figured a way to fill the dents instead of refretting.
But wonder how long will it last. He'll keep me posted!
