You mean buzzing? That could be your neck truss rod needing adjustment. (don't do it yourself). Sometimes a fret pops out of it's saddle and you can glue it back. But you would have noticed that by now.

Best bet is to take it to where you bought and have the tech look at it.

I'd tend to agreee with mustangtoo about the truss rod needing adjustment. But it could be the frets working loose or just need some leveling. Is just happening on a couple of strings? I'd take 2 or 3 strings off and place a 12" level on the fret board below the problem spot and slide up to and over those frets if it snags the frets are the problem. check it with a 2 foot level to see if you have a bow in the neck. This way you have an idea of what to have a good tech look at. Good Luck

ps: A good tech can set up a guitar and make it play better than one costing twice as much
