Question:

Acoustic guitar acting up?!?

Got of a bit of a problem with my acoustic guitar. Ever time i strick the bass E string, a buzzing sound comes out. At first i thought it might just be the string, so i tried mucking around with it, same problem. It also sometimes happens when i pluck the A string. Anybody have any idea whats making it?! The guitars reasonably new (around 3 months)


Best Answer - Chosen by Asker: First check and see if your guitar is still under warranty. If it is, take it right to the shop and ask them to make the necessary adjustment to the truss rod, frets, neck nut or saddle, to get rid of the extra noise. If it's not still under warranty, I would do the same thing, but you may want to go directly to a luthier rather than wait for the music store to get around to it. In most cases, this is a minor repair and should be done while you wait.
