This particular photo etch set is one of the most complete I've seen. It is designed for the Trumpeter kits and consists of six frets (five brass and one steel) as well as several lengths of plastic rod (not shown) as well as several sections of brass wire.

It seems that no part of these kits will go untouched by this set. The seven pages of instructions have a multitude of construction diagrams that show not only the kit parts and number but also those etched pieces that apply. One simply takes each diagram as a single step and treats each as its own little model. Eventually, the update will be complete and one will have the most accurate model that plastic and brass can provide.

The set is superbly etched and will add a lot to your particular build.
