    It has been refinished, and it has been through a lot, I would rate it FAIR using the Reverb system, so the price reflects that. I don't know what original features were supposed to be there, those early models are all kinda uniques. I found a similar one presented in this video: The truss rod...

    I just bought new Harley Benton flatwounds and the A string is buzzing when played open, first and second fret. I have tried pushing down between the nut and the tuning peg and that did not help. Also tried putting pressure on the nut itself to see if it was too loose there but no help. The...

    Help! Fret-buzz lower frets?!

    I’ve been struggling with fret-buzz on the lower frets (2-7 in particular), the G string being the main offender (by far) although there’s a tad on the D string too. Relief is set to 0.12” (0.3mm) and bridge action is fairly low, but nothing extreme. The bass in question is a 2016 American Pro...

    Noisy Bass

    Hello! I am trying to identify what is causing the hum / buzz with this bass so I can get it gig ready. I do not see any disconnected wires on the pots or the output jack. I know nothing of soldering, but the white wire connection here looks off. Is this my problem? I'm sorry if this is a...

    Pedal Issues

    Hello, I have a pedal train set up with 6 pedals on it. Sometimes my sound cuts out or a buzz happens. If I play live the thing that usually fixes the issue temporarily is lightly smacking my Ibanez DE7 Echo/Delay peday. I tap the side where the pedal cable connects to it. Sometimes it makes...

    No (usual) fret buzz, but figured out relief was still too low.

    I did a new setup in the winter, and all was good. Then one day in spring (you see where this is going) I start learning a new piece, playing elsewhere on the neck (mostly B/E/A around 4-6th frets), and there's this very unpleasant buzz as I release each note, even when already using a fretwrap...

    Senior bass moment: fret buzz or my weak left hand?

    I've taken the bass back up after 45 years. Trying to work myself into shape, but getting noticeable E string fret buzz often. Other 3 seem alright. Is there a definitive way to tell if its the bass or my arthritis? Thanks for any advice you can provide. Jon

    Using a metal pickguard to reduce pickup noise

    Grounding Issues Advice

    Hello! If I plug my bass in and turn the amp volume loud then turn down the bass I can hear a bit of a buzz. Soon as I touch the jack the noise stops completely. I guess this means it's some grounding connection issue in the bass. Is it ok to leave it as is or is this something that needs...

    I have a two-year-old Traynor SB115 combo amp that began humming (lightly but still annoying) a week ago. It stops when I touch the bass strings or bridge. It is the amp, not the guitar or cable (I have other amps, guitars and cables). Would anyone know anything about this? Thanks.
