problem with my guitar when sliding and pulling off.
« on: May 11, 2008, 10:05:57 PM »
lately when i pull off on the b string from like 8-7 i get a buzzing sound and a dodgy sounding note this also happens on the D when sliding from the 14-12

its only started happening over the last few days.

Could this be due to the weather?

how would i go about sorting it out?

This the agile or the vintage? ;)

I'd say weather for sure though, truss rod time!

But i'm no expert... slightly uneven frets too?

+1, trussrod or bridge adjustment. What you have is the string touching the upper frets above the fretted note so you get dodgy noises from those ...
