Should I Send This DK2M Back?

I've been working on guitars for over 20 years and have never seen fret size,be it medium,mj or jumbo be the sole reason for a player hearing fret buzz. How hard you press down on the frets might effect the intonation of the note from too much pressure but never from pressing to lightly.
I'd write it off as a learning experience and send it back.

Yeah that's what I always thought! It's high time I start learning how to do all these adjustments myself. I'm trying to not take this personally, I've been playing guitar for 12 years... but I'm not stuck with the guitar and that's what matters!

Normally the high frets stay flat regardless of the amout of relief you try to apply. In other words the truss rod only seems to effect the lower end.

that maybe I wasn't used to the jumbo frets and my touch was too light for it...I don't really know what to say about that.

wrong. in my experience, any sort of tall fretwire requires a lighter touch much like a scalloped neck. too much pressure and you bend the note sharp. that just sounds like the usual bs people at stores feed people, like saying razorback deans have built in distortion haha! good luck on the shredstick search nicole!

I would send it back based solely on my belief that I should not have to spend money on top of purchase price to have work done. I mean if it is new and the price range it is in it SHOULD NOT require any addition work that you or your boyfriend couldn't do yourself. If it does then it sounds like you got a lemon. I would send it back and see if they would send another one in better condition.
