Definitely not something I would try. Martin's suggestions sound far
less adventurous (hardly surprising as he is a professional maker). I
have never encountered problems with body frets on my lutes.

Just pry them off with a razor blade. I've done it many times. Seems like a lot
of builders have trouble getting body frets right. Almost always way too small
and in the wrong place.

Hello Lutenet,
Does anyone have any advice for removing the body frets on a lute? (The
10th-12th frets on my lute are horrendously out of tune and the builder
seems to have changed his email address.)
Should I just try a small knife underneath the fret? I worry about
accidentally scraping wood off of the soundboard.
I'd appreciate any help you could give me.
Thanks,
Kyle
