Obviously playing in the same position (cowboy chords) is going to wear those frets (usually the first 3 or 4) much faster than the others........other than that there are too many variables to determine what has caused your frets to wear faster than you feel they should (only you know just how much time you have on the guitar) If you only wear the first 2 or 3 frets it is not a big expense to have them replaced and you may find that after some time you may not be jamming down as hard with your fretting hand as before and the new frets may last somewhat longer than those you replace. jmho
