The Stainless frets on the Pia are slinky but, in all honesty, not any better to play than the Jem's Nickel frets (especially if recently polished). The playing experience is pretty much the same - apart from the Pia neck is a bit more"D" shaped and therefore feels a bit fuller in the hand. The Pia is a lovely guitar but isn't worth the price hike IMO
