Fret Buzz eating my lunch !

Posted by Old Man Vinegar on March 4, 2014 at 5:28pm in Building Secrets, Tips, Advice, Discussion
Okay, I have built over 90 CBG's. My last 10 builds have really got me puzzled . Everyone gets the occasional string buzz. I file it and get it out. These will not go away. I have leveled the frets and still getting buzz. Any suggestions ? Very frustrated , Jeff

    Action too low , string binding in the nut , not enough break angle from nut and bridge , how does your last builds differ from your early builds ?

      Thanks for the reply ;-) turned out that I was not getting my string angle from nut to bridge correct. I started using adjustable bridges on my 4 stringers . Which threw me off when I went back to my traditional bridge/ setup process .
      Thanks
      Jeff
