hi,

my guitar strings buzz very hard since i changed them, i m new

even though i set action so high still they buzz to much..my guitar is so f*****

thx

@anshulkamboj probably the truss rod need adjusting. many times the way someone picks the strings can cause buzz.

dude! why do i find it very hard to pick my strings fast? now dont say that im a shit guitarists... my action is aright and i have a floyd rose and in standard tuning! help!

[WillsEasyGuitar]

@polishskaterdude32 usually its the way you hol the pick. turn the pick so is at a45 degree angle or so to the string. in other words, dont pick with the flat side of the pick or the thin side, but some where in between. Also dont let that muc of the pick touch the string. 1/8" of an inch is more than enough. picking should be in the wrist for most stuff.

@WillsEasyGuitar i see wat you saying, buy i find it very easy to do fast tremolo picking on other guitars... if the one with the floyd rose badly set up? i tryed everything...

first act guitars have truss rod covers too.

@v2brozarro is it just on the 9th of the g? if so, i would think its a fret issue. you can raise the high side of the bridge a little and it should correct things. it will raise your action and possibly cause the notes in the upper register to go a touch sharp.

I think my guitar is bent backwards when I play the 9th fret on the g string it buzzes I have an epiphone les Paul. And I'm not to sure I want to mess with it because I might screw up. Any thoughts?
