ihocky2 Posted September 25, 2007 Report Share Posted September 25, 2007 First thing I would do is make sure everything is set up properly. If you first fret is buzzing, my first guess would be that the nut slots are too low. Read through the tutorials on how to do a full set up and get the guitar where you want it. Then see if it is still buzzing. If not, then you fixed with a setup. You may find during the setup that the nut slots are too deep and you know where the problem is and need to replace the nut. If you get through the setup and find nothing wrong and it still buzzes then the fret would probably need leveling and dressing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
