another neck fret board question

[mdutko]

John, last time we spoke you suggested fretting after the fretboard was glued to the neck....I just watched your video and you suggested to fret first before gluing to neck, you said on the video that you only fretted once after it was glued up and you had problems....I'm confused which way should I go? Its a Martin 000 kit from you. Thanks again for all your help

The video was done before I changed. You can do it both ways but I have found the frets on later allow you a chance to plane and true the fretboard on the guitar.
If you feel uncomfortable at this point to fret on the guitar , you can do it the old way but don't dress the frets until you glue it on the guitar. I will be reshooting that video soon
