Brass frets?  Never heard of that.

This stuff http://www.lmii.com/products/mostly-not-wood/fretting/fretwire/gold-evo-fretwire looks a lot like brass.

If it's been re-fretted with Evo wire, I would consider that a bonus. It's extremely hard stuff. (I re-fretted my Gibson F-5 with it, to match the gold hardware)

Hey edwardofhuncote, thanks for the link, nice looking fret wire.

Ah - that I've heard of (and really want on a custom M-45 - someday.......)

[Goldenrod]

Sorry for the confusion. The FRETS are MADE of NICKEL and are brass colored.
