I have a good many flat frets on my CE24 Reclaimed Wood.
Quick update: Purchased new this time last year (18 April 18) in the uk.
In September 2018: returned under warranty for replacement of twisted neck. New neck made in USA and sent back to uk for fitting.
I played the guitar today and felt flat frets upward of the 12th position. Frets at the lower position look correctly crowned & polished (still).
Now I am wondering whether I could have worn several frets flat during these 8 months or whether they were not finished properly prior to sending back to the retailer? If its the latter, was is like this from USA or when fitted at the repair centre in uk?
I dont think I have ever worn frets out this quickly before. I have gigged the guitar twice during this time, and used it lightly at other times. I do play more at the upper position than the lower, but its a marked difference and a lot of 'wear'.
Opinions anyone?
