15th fret problem
15th fret problem
hello everybody so my ibanez iceman is messed up i have recently changed the strings and on the 15th fret high e there is a muffled 16th fret high e note so basically the 15th fret makes the 16th fret pitch and there is no 15th fret pitch . anybody know whats wrong with my guitar? i think it has something to do with the truss rod. any help is appreciated
Sounds like a truss rod problem. My guess is you went with a lower gauge so you'd have to loosen the truss rod. Don't go crazy, try 1/8 or 1/4 turns then tune up and check it, repeat if needed but I doubt you'll need anymore than a 1/4 turn if you're only having a problem on one fret. More severe issues have multiple fret problems. I keep trying to tell people PICK A GAUGE AND STICK TO IT!
