Silverbursted Posted June 7, 2009 Report Share Posted June 7, 2009 How are you storing your guitar? It's possible there may be some warping in your neck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AXE® Posted June 7, 2009 Report Share Posted June 7, 2009 I think it WAS stored in a frigid storage building for a while in the winter. It may never be the same after that.

This is not enough info to determine anything. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kimolas Posted June 7, 2009 Report Share Posted June 7, 2009 Did the set up include all of the fret leveling and polishing and such? Also, there will always be a normal amount of fret buzz, and as long as you can't notice it on your amp there isn't an issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim Plains Posted June 7, 2009 Report Share Posted June 7, 2009 If you just had the set up done recently (and you paid for it), take it back and have them fix it for you. The remedy is either raise the bridge or adjust the neck...or a combination of the two. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flight959 Posted June 7, 2009 Report Share Posted June 7, 2009 How low is your action? Its states on a little card I have that came with my guitar that "slight" buzz may be unavoidable.. Like Are nine said just take it back to the Tech...He wont mind! Regards Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If anything you could just raise the action a little, not like you'll notice it when playing, it'll help a lot with buzzing though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
callen3615 Posted June 7, 2009 Report Share Posted June 7, 2009 Id go with the tub approach. Submerge it in the tub for about 4 hours, then it will sound great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Apothecurious Posted June 8, 2009 Report Share Posted June 8, 2009 Theres a huge amount of things that can contribute to fret buzz: Uneven frets, old strings, humidity/temperature changes, poor nut, bridge too low, incorrect truss rod tightness etc... Personally I find that a lot of my guitars tend to buzz more when its humid outside (ie right now). Fret buzzing problems usually dont pop up out of no where except from temp/humidity changes and old strings, at least in my experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
