This, of course, is the point at which I feel compelled to point out that for many years, the standard Martin fret height was .037".
I spent years on this forum (and others) complaining about this ridiculously low height, and was met with universal vilification and withering scorn.
Then, three years ago, Martin surreptitiously, with no prior announcement, started installing .043" fretwire as standard.
I have no way of knowing whether or not my one-man crusade was in any way responsible for the change of direction ...
