american standard fenders and many custom shop fenders have the much taller buttery smooth frets but it totally minimizes the contact of your fingers on the fretbaord...and some like that faster nimble feel, while other like me, feel that i am playing a plastic or graphite neck
granted, i can fly like a race car on fat, tall frets, but that's not my style anymore these days
