Do these fret ends look fine to you?

[Stupid_scientist]

Hi all! My first warmoth neck and it was bought 2nd hand. Love it, but I have noticed that sometimes I actually roll the high E string of the edge of the fretboard...I wonder, is it because the fret ends are too rounded or is it my technique(I've never owned a guitar with frets this SS frets before, and they are SOOO slippery! I also rarely played frets this huge, the guy said these are the biggest frets warmoth makes) Here is the pic of the fret ends, I don't think it's the way they come from the factory, right? It's still playable, it's just I don't think I ever experienced that before.

Welcome to the board!

Re: fret ends - It's your technique causing you to roll off. Those frets look like they're the SS6100 wire, and actually, Warmoth usually puts a little more bevel on than is obvious on those. They almost look square to the 'board where they're normally about 35° in on the top, but they've also obviously been dressed/polished, which is a Good Thing. I can see there's plenty of room from the E string to the edge of the fretboard, but SS frets are slippery little devils, especially if they've been polished. But, it's a desirable/preferable condition. You just may need a little time to get used to it.

I'm with Cagey, those look square to the board, but it could just be the picture.

A technique I have adapted in my playing is to always bend the top two strings in towards the middle of the neck, because I always used to fret out my bends.

I'd like a little more bevel than that.  If the bridge has a wide spacing, like the vintage Strat flat mount, it can make that fall off the fret board effortless.  Also, it may just be the choice of words, but Warmoth doesn't make frets.
