Doesn't surprise me. At the 12th, you've got a big fat pearl inlay, which sometimes caused uneven fret-board spots at production time. You've also got the neck/body joint happening right under there, which can make a rise in the board (especially on a guitar that old). High fret likely too.

All of which is fixable. But anytime someone is named "John Smith", they're likely hiding something.

hey i was in a car in highschool and we were stopped by the police, there was a green a brown a jones and doe, eddie to be exact but the cop had us up against the car until he saw our driving license. then he relented. so if a john smith had been in the car we would still be in jailhttp://projectguitar.ibforums.com/style_images/1/folder_post_icons/icon4.gif

anyone have any ideas? on the 11th fret on the D string, the note is C#. it doesnt sound right. almost like there is something damping the string. it wont ring properly. this does not happen on any other strings anywhere on the guitar. the strings are thomastick-infeld flatwounds. not totally new maybe three weeks and not much use. anyone?
