It looks like a whole other world.... https://www.stewmac.com/Luthier_Tools/Types_of_Tools/
Oh, it actually is - the accuracy level of frets installation is one of the reasons why some guitars are drastically more expensive than pretty similar looking analogs. It directly influences guitar’s ability to sound nice to untrained ear and have a close to perfect pitch for the advanced listeners. See, it’s physically impossible for guitars and some other fretted instruments to have a perfect pitch at every fret due to its design - opposite to the piano, for example...

Unless you have one of those ones with the funny frets...

I was just reading last night about how the manufacturers don't bother setting up lower-end guitars properly these days.
