In the guitar world, I've had some folks not like the feel of semi-hemi (that's the cool, non organ related, non organ meat term) fret ends. They say you feel the bumps more than beveled.]
I started doing "semi-hemi" hotdog frets when I ran into Dunlop 6100 fret wire. They are HUGE. If the ends were beveled the bevel would run all the way under the outside strings. Turned out that I liked the hotdog frets, so I offered them as an option and always kept a sample around. But its been years since I've done a refret. I'm so far out of the loop I have no idea what players like these days. I automatically use beveled frets on my instruments now just so they won't surprise anyone. I still like big frets, though. Medium guitar wire on everything.
