Alright I had trouble figuring out where to post this so??? I think its here? Well anyways. I have a Agile Interceptor that has raised frets. Its been like this ever since I bought it. But at the time money was scarce. So I was wondering how much would it be to fix it? It just needs to be sanded and refinished? Right? I'm not sure. And I know prices vary. But any price at all would help. Thanks! And it seems the frets are raised after the 12th fret. The rest are all fine. I just get a bunch of dead notes. And the only way i can get rid of them is to raise the action way way up. And its impossible to play then.

They may need to be beat down with a fretting hammer then youll likely need a leveling, crowning and a polish.. This can cost anywhere from 100 200 bucks. Prices vary widely depending on who does the work.

You have pics?

The pics don't really show much. I mean you can see like how high my action is but when i fret a note you can see the string hit and buzz. My guitar teacher said that its because the frets are not level. Im not sure whats it is. I never messed with a fret board before.

Take it to a guitar tech you trust, or ask your teacher if he knows about someone capable of doing it.

Don't mess with it if you don't have the tools.
