I didn't figure out why the 339 seemed harder for me to play than the others until I took a measurement. I'm assuming fret size is a preference? I'm thinking of going with 6105 or 6100 frets. I'll be doing my own fret work so my cost will be the fret wire and my time.
Any input appreciated.

Fretwire is a preference. If you go for tall, you might want wide or standard width. Wide frets are nice for slurs (sliding).
Try to visit a local music store and try different guitars with different fret widths and heights. Then you'll get a better idea so you can make a more informed decision.
