scotte Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 http://hosted.filefront.com/scotteza/ Theres a file there called thump.mp3. When i fret any higher than my 20th fret on my cheap epiphone sg special it makes that thump noise and has a weird vibraty sound too. Tune o matic bridge im assuming is the problem coz it still makes the noise when not plugged in so its the string not the pickup. Anyone know how to fix this? I fiddled around before coz it used to do this on two strings both after the 15th fret. Erk Tank-ee Quote
Primal Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 I can't listen to the file right now, but thumps like that can occur when the string frets out (usually when its fretting out on more than one fret, in my experience). Check your action, raising the bridge might help. Quote
Desopolis Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 +1 on fretting out. check the truss rod or just bump the action a bit.. Quote
egdeltar Posted October 19, 2006 Report Posted October 19, 2006 Definitely fretting out right there... Quote
