its not like the regular fret buzz. when i play through my amp on CLEAN its perfectly fine but when i add a little distortion/ overdrive u can hear it. Its kinda hard to describe its sorta like this wavy, weird sound. Its pretty bad on lower 4 strings. Does anyone know how to get rid of this? I think its called sympathetic fret buzz not sure..

heres a video i made for u people
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l8hgnuBIY9E

Its definitely my guitar cuz i tried two amps, same problem...

ANY HELP PLZZZZ!!!

if so you have a low fret.
You will need to have it repaired.

Your pickups are too high.
Too much gain not anywhere near enough middle.

Lower the two single coils. Then re-eq your sound to put some body into it.
