SW bought himself a very nice guitar and it had fret buzz. I think this is a contact high of the frets from all the THC in his fingertips. Anyway, he said for that much money, it better damn well be perfect and he told Martin guitars to shove it up their ass or some such. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Common fret buzz: A guitar neck (acoustic or electric, or any fretted instrument) is angled down ever so slightly from the head to the bridge. When you press string against any fret, it will not touch the rest of the frets from there to the bridge. Except when something is wrong, then it gets close enough that the vibrations make it barely touch another fret, and it buzzes. Frets wear down over time, that's why my Gibson buzzes a bit. Or the neck gets out of adjustment and bows up. Or strings get worn and vibrate more. The head nut, the bridge could be worn, the guitar is a piece of junk.... lots of reasons 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, jerky, because asking here gives me the context as to why this term is associated with this forum. Uncle Google would not link said issues. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dottleshead ★ Posted March 20, 2023 Share #8 Posted March 20, 2023 Can we be sure SW changed it though? I was thinking @Kzoo or @bikeman564™ may have done it. Those guys are drugged out rockers. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still a pricey well made instrument but I think the quality of a Martin is better than a Taylor but I don’t know. I strum a 7/8 Yamaha. My cousin bought a $4,000 Martin for $2,000 as his brother’s MIL retired from Martin Guitar after 50 years and she still gets employee discount. I’d buy one but I’m not worthy. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
