Yup same.. Never happy with myself

[@danielforto]

Yea so yea so when to worry yea so buzz light year anyways yea so

[@pestilence_5.0]

I learned everything and nothing about fret buzz in this video lmao.

[@ts4gv]

This guy talks like he’s stoned while giving a class presentation trying to act sober lol

[@therocknrollguitarlounge7057]

Yes i agree when i change my strings i get some buzz , i don't mind it because it will go away after some use.. I had a fender squier with fret buzz i had to shave the frets from the 12th to the 21 fret to even them out in that area plays great now! cool video Matt!!!

[@ajnemesis]

This is a video that soooo needed to be done on YT. I remember freaking the hell out when I first got my Ibanez. And then I realized it was no big deal. Hugely helpful video Matt!! Also 2:45 had me laughing hysterically!! 😂

[@mattriffmaster]

Ha ha boom!!! Happy to help

[@nikolayjovanovic423]

Higher gauge = less movement = lower action. Ps: Where can I buy 9.5 set of strings. I'll use them for E standard on 25.5 inch scale guitar. I play 10's, tried 9's and they are too slinky for me so 9.5 should be okay.

[@aek4018]

yeah, good points. my guitars buzz all over the place, but nothing sounds wrong in the speakers. no fucks given ;) i still prefer to have lower action and lots of buzz rather than struggling to play with the strings high. btw, Hetfields guitars buzz like crazy, just listen to the middle section of MoP or Sandman intro :)

[@Oilid]

I've been setting my Les Paul for 5 days because of fret buzz. So THANKS for sharing!

[@Cymanytb]

Yeah dude and check it out. Try this: get your guitar, plug in, put it on clean and you'll see it doesn't come through (Basically if it's not stopping the string from resonating or it does just a bit it's really alright). I have both an les paul and an sg and the sg has really big fret buzz but it doesn't go through the amp. If you really want it to go away dress your frets, check the nut for wear and/or adjust the truss rod a bit. But most of the time is no biggie. I see the strings moving like crazy on Angus Young, Tom Morello's guitar while they smash it with the pick and the guitar sounds perfect on the amp. I've been trying for 2 months to make it go away completely but it's really not a problem. Glad I discovered this video :)).

[@Oilid]

[@mattwiltshire1657]

I have heard this buzzing that you say not to worry about in Hetfield’s clean tone live, something new learnt because I always thought it was because of action being too low! 👍🏼

[@Timbo6669]

If the high bend notes 'choke out', then its nothing to worry about necessarily. It could be just your action being too low on the treble strings.

[@wildchild5157]

I'm struggling with string buzz but I've tried every setting I can and I had hoped I'd find something about string gauge and how you pick the string, which sometimes cause unavoidable buzzing. Would have been helpful

[@CruciatusVXS]

if it isn't the truss rod or the bridge, then uneven frets might be the issue

[@united_metalheads]

It would have been better if you showed an example of when buzz gets out of amp

[@guitardunce7571]

Thanks for this mate, I just bought a PRS Mark Holcomb and I was super worried. Glad to hear it's not a huge issue.

[@bobsmith1965]

Dude!!!!! Next video have a guitar that has fret buzz and play it through the amp for an example. You never even hit a string in a video about fret buzz. WTF????

[@challeis1]

Listen carefully he has some buzz going on.

[@Ra3D]

I think I have an irregular buzzing problem. Is there anything that can be done if you get buzzing not during the note, but a buzz afterwards, when you release the note? (e.g lifting the fretting hand off the string).

[@mikewallace9193]

Fret buzz can be an intonation problem or a truss rod issue, or a bridge issue, or a nut issue, or just the sound of your woman's voice being drowned out by your amp... Its worse if the frets are not level, but still easy enough to fix. The trick is not fixing it until you know whether or not it is a high fret, or a maladjusted truss rod, or a wonky bridge, or just nice, low buttery action and new strings. Mine need some finger grease, never mind where that came from..., to dial into low and quiet. Its harder with a tremolo.

[@orelaroki]

I would love some help: I have a blackstar id 30 TVP and today i hooked it up to my pc and started playing some GOJIRA on discord, however after a while I downloaded the blackstar insider software and for some reason my computer no longer picks up any sound from the guitar.. It does detect the Blackstar Digital Output but still no sound comes out.. Thanks in advance to anyone who might help.

[@kwk111]

When I palm-mute pick low e string frets 3-7, I get buzzing. Not sure if it's because of my amp modeler or because of my guitar. I've tried to adjust my technique but the buzz persists

[@dukeaboy829]

That riff at the end of your video is that your own? I think you played it in one of your videos but after much searching I can’t find it... any idea which video it’s on?

[@mattriffmaster]

It is mate yes

[@MTkr19]

Now that you mentioned it, you do look a little bit like Buzz... Haha.. thanks for the video. I just got an LTD Snakebyte and it buzzes a bit but doesn't really come out in the amp - still wondering if I need to get it all set up though. Cheers

[@NightOwlGames]

i got a strat last month im basically just starting out practicing with 3 chords there is a rattle now but i thought it was just me been new to it guitar only a few weeks old only use it 20 minutes a day.

[@Jacob22941]

Needs adjusted. Look it up or take it to a professional

[@davemichael5203]

I've had my strings replaced today... And got some buzz... And I was like "what's happened with my guitar??" 😂😂😂 Maybe it will fade in a couple of days 😁

[@yorichixX]

Same here

[@Here2shtpst]

When you think you can't hear it through the Amp, try recording your guitar, mic out. That's my current issue.

[@jasonclark9963]

I like jumbo fret guitars and I’ve usually had luck with them

[@robysvids]

What about screeching noise on the amp from fret buzz that shit drove me insane 😳

[@380stroker]

It's the new style bro

[@MM-bg7in]

I just started and was told the fret buzz is my issue due to bad technique. I had the shop I bought it at to do a set up and it does the same thing. Very frustrating. Not a “pleasant” buzz.

[@testbeeld2877]

When you have that "oww these strings are fresh" Buzz how long does that last?

[@therockblog]

like 1-2hrs of playing

[@AtTheSourceStudios]

Now with the TVP and Series one side by side.. comparison video can commence! :) Yyeesssss lol just like see how close you can get the tone rather than just matching EQ/settings. Or both compare identical settings and then change the TVP however to get it to match close as possible. Nobody has respect for the TVP amps but I think you could get it pretty close?

[@artisimo7967]

I can't find a way to lower my action without getting frettbuzz on all strings past the 5th fret I have to have a crazy front bow and my saddles are all the way up the action is a mile high but any lower and the strings get caught on the 24th feet and buzz up there the action is a mile high it is literally unplayable please help

[@edyrocker8677]

I have a Dean Evo Noir and at the First E and B string buzz at the 12th fret

[@chucklee2995]

Thanks for enlightening my mind some, I absolutely thought same thing one tiny buzz and I'm ready to go on a guitar killing spree, I have one now my main guitar, because of low action but can't hear it through amp, so thanks this did help, oh yes the new string buzz, I call it jingly jangley type sound, but yes it is there, and depending on how hard you play how long you play etc that will wear out but I don't go much farther when that happens, and I'm changing strings

[@chris-crossapplesauce]

thanks i got a guitar for christmas and was worried haha!

[@justanotherbrah8475]

Is it normal that a brand new guitar is buzzing,and when I tried to adjust the height of an e string the saddle just jumped out,and inside of it looks rusty...

[@guitarhub90]

Mine too. Still sound crazy on my high E string on the 12 to 19 fret.

[@itsmegsy4496]

So I just got a new guitar. The first 2 strings buzz and they feel so loose but if I tighten them it’s out of tune. Any help?? Appreciate it

[@jasper.6001]

im no expert but if you tighten the screws on the back of the bridge it will tighten the strings, then you can tune them down into tune again, making them in tune and tighter

[@itsmegsy4496]

Jasper. Okay thankyou sm

[@Danything123]

yup it over when he said the string rotates! 😂😂😂

[@Broken-Silencer]

What do you think it does; just go up and down or side to side? It actually does rotate, and the biggest arc is in the middle. Think of two people holding a skipping rope: One person is the nut, whilst the other is the bridge.
