WHY IS MY GUITAR BUZZING - CAUSES AND FIXES

Common Causes:

  • Low action: The strings sit too close to the frets.

  • Neck relief issues: Changes in temperature or humidity can cause the neck to bow or warp.

  • Uneven frets: One or more frets sit higher than the rest.


Our Solution: We perform a full assessment—checking action, neck relief, and fret condition—then make precise adjustments to restore a clean, buzz-free sound.


Pro Tip: In coastal cities like Southampton, the changing seasons can cause wood to expand or contract. A yearly setup helps keep buzzing at bay.
