All of the sudden i cannot restring one of my guitars. I wasted seven strings but whenever i get one on it doesnt even sound out! it just buzzes and sounds muted. it sounds the way a string with bad tension sounds, but im practically cutting my hands open with all the tension i put on there. My other guitars string up fine.
Is it me or is my guitar gettin retarded?
And i already tried online help. |

First off, is it a fixed bridge or a floating tremelo (Floyd Rose)? |

Also, does it have a bolt-on neck or a thru-neck (solid body)? |

Oh ok, that's a lot like my old LTD.. The only thing I can think to try is to hold up the bridge at eye level and see if your strings are touching any of the frets. If they are, try to raise the bridge a little (there should be 2 bolts with allen heads. Mess around with that until you get all the strings ringing out.
I hope that helps you out some. There should also be a bolt at the top of the neck by the tuning pegs you can adjust. But that one is a pain in the ass.
Did you put a heavier gauge string on last time? |
