I hope you have a backup guitar!

Not near enough.
What with my job ( 12 hour shifts ), being the head of household and all that entails maintenance wise, as well as attempting to assist in getting my fathers property ready for estate sale.
Hopefully in the coming months I'll be able to get back into a daily routine.
As for right now . . . I've got four acres of lawn to mow.

Party on dudes.

I've worn out 5-6 guitars now, scalloped the metal frets down to the wood. I've scalloped the wooden fretboard on 3-4 guitars.
. . . rosewood . . .
I don't mind too much. As the scalloping takes a long time, and it is gradual, I unconsciously adapt. I notice a difference when I play other peep's guitars . . .
.
Last I checked (couple years back), redoing the frets would run me from $150 - $180 ( in CT ) ). Many guitars aren't worth it.
And to replace the wood on a fretboard must be exorbitantly expensive. You probably wouldn't want to consider that unless your guitar is valuable, or you love it to no end.

Sans, I hope things get better for you.
Life gets pretty tough, sometimes, my friend . . .
Try not to get jaded . . .
Things will eventually balance out.
