lengle1981 Posted March 18, 2013 Share Posted March 18, 2013 Been playing my new Sheraton plugged in. anyway, i've now unplugged it and there's some real buzz coming off most of the strings. I've highered the action and its still doing it. The neck looks straight but its definitely buzzing/rattling. Anyone else had this issue with their Sheraton reissue?

mcgruff Posted March 19, 2013 Share Posted March 19, 2013 The neck looks straight It shouldn't be perfectly straight: It should have a little bit of a bend. See frets.com buzz diagnosis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Old Rocker 59 Posted March 20, 2013 Share Posted March 20, 2013 How do you have the bridge height adjusted ? If you have it even on both sides , chances are that could be the culprit . Usually the Bass side should be higher while the Treble is lower in relation to the bridge. Also ,is your neck perfectly straight or is there any bow in it at all ? Also how is the intonation on it ? If that isn't set right , that could be a cause of the buzzing as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I played about with it but just couldn't get it right. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
