Fret Baffle

Action Board Sub-fret Baffles: Hexagonal sub-fret pine board, fine grained, but matte, not varnished. In this model, the board is secured to the under-frets by just three hand-carved pyramidal rectangular blocks, screwed to the action plinth area of the sub-fret area, with a few dark felt circlets glued under the frets to cushion the baffle.
