Hey anyone know why my D & B string keeps on buzzing? I adjusted the truss rod, bridge etc.... I don't here it when I play through my amp, but acoustic I can hear it. Any ideas?

The perfect low action setup will have some string buzz acoustically, but not heard when playing through an amp.

If you are not happy with it you can always raise those 2 saddles just a little bit.

I didn't Lose my mind, I traded it for this guitar.

Is it a low action problem, or is it insufficient string break angle over the nut?

If it's not low action, try gently pressing down those affected strings behind the nut. If that solves the problem, then you need to think about string trees or winding the string down to the bottom of the tuner. Both of these will increase the break angle.

By design, Strats are marginal for optimum break angle at the nut.

String Gauge makes a difference too. Some strats are designed for .010's, if you're using .008's, the strings might be too sloppy in the nut slot...

Hey Ryan - We need more info. Do these strings buzz only when open, or on certain frets, or on all the frets?

p.s. Since no one else has mentioned it yet, I'll be the designated smart a** and say that since you can't hear it through an amp and the buzzing doesn't interfere with sustain or tone, then don't worry about it. This is not an acoustic guitar.

Both strings start to buzz around the 11th fret to the 21st fret. I checked the frets, and there is no signs of wear. i think I got some crappy strings. Or maybe I over stretched them. not sure

Now we're getting somewhere! Thats from a couple of different things...

1) Backbow in the neck, adjust your truss rod

and/or

2) Bad fret job, have them checked

and/or

3) Warped neck/fretboard, that might need a replacement

You're best bet it to take it to a pro and have them adjust it....

Thanks everyone. I really do appreciate everypne opinion. I did notice that some of my strings have some kinks in them. Frist time I got a bad set from Ernie Ball.
